Hi I am brand new to this fourm and i been looking aroud for some noob advice.I have a 97 Accord LX 5 speed . I am low on funds and wanna get a Header and Intake before exhust due to it cost alot more. I'll probly just throw a muffler on it for now. But anyway what is a good brand Header? I hear DC but not too sure what is good or not? Also what is a reccomended for intake? sorry very noob with cars.

 

Use the search function.
Intake: if you do not live in California, buy a cheap ebay intake, throw away the filter, and put a, AEM Dryflow, K&N, or Apexi filter on the end of the ebay intake tube.
Header: If you do not live in California, Megan Racing or OBX (type in OBX in the search engine).

 

Cool thanks i been searchign around and looks like i'll be thinking about these parts:
AEM SHORT RAM INTAKE
DC Sport 4-2-1 Headers
APEX'i WSII Exhaust system

iono if they are anygood of if there are better let me know if this are decent parts or what not

 

They are all good parts. If you want to save money, do like 00Accord said and get a cheap intake and replace the filter. Also swap the DC Sports header with OBX. The differences between these replacements and the expensive parts is almost nothing besides tuned sounds.

Don't underestimate the potential of the cat-back system. The biggest restriction in your exhaust is the mid-pipe. Don't go larger than 2.25" piping though.

I love my WS2's .... much quieter than the Injen CAI and they have a great tone.

 

cool thanks for the feed back

 

Sounds like a plan!

I just took off my OBX header and will probably be putting it on eBay soon. Though I have had a few problems with it.
