Hi I was checking out headers for my 93 accord and came across one on ebay....it doesnt seem to have a brand. Also it dropped from $81 to $64 and I"m thinking of buying it. If you were me would you buy it or would you stay away since it's not a name brand? Also what recommendations would give me for a good header? And what would an aftermarket header do for my accord? Heres the link to it on ebay:

Its ebay man. you get wat you pay for. Worth 60 bucks i would say. may only last 3 years tops but who cares..... Ebay stuff usually doesnt fit 100% correct.. and welds rust fast, but fudge it... I say 65 bucks is worth the extra horsepower and torque u will get by removing your cat and flowing more air. A good header brand would be DC sports and most the time they are carb legal so u can smog ur car with it on. ebay one is no carb legal so you will have to put your stock back on when smog is due.

Don't mess with that ebay crap bad fitments and leaky as hell. If you want a good flowing long lasting header get your hands on an F22a4 OEM header. You can find them @ pick n pull for under $50. Ebay might even have some.
My girl got me a ebay header for like 80 bucks 4 xmas. Looked nice no named header. I used it for less than 3days. It sounded like crap the welds sucked and it was leaking after 12hr?? F that, I swapped my f22a4 header back on and the car even ran better.

 

so that would mean the header in my 91 accord ex is perfect and i dont really need to change it? going off of the engine id sticky : 1991 Accord EX: 2.2L(2156cc), F22A4, MPFI, SOHC 16-valve (dual exhaust manifold)

 

yup you should already have it. So don't even bother with it.

Thanks g22cd5! will do!

 

not exactly sure about all that lol, im thinkin that wat i have in the car is already pretty good and doesnt need much, maybe a new throttle body and a spacer? my main thing is its got 200+k on it so i dont wanna like blow it up or sumn, i wanna beef it up but at the same time kinda give it a lil r&rm the car is a beater but i know enough about body work and such to bring it back with sum style

 

Iv got 208k on my cb7 and I beat the s*it out of it all day every day. The mods Iv got done right now are f22a1 (auto/ but not for long..lol) with f22a4 header with a test pipe and 94 ex (vtec f22) axle back with muffler AEM CAI h22 dizzy and thats it. I mean it's slow and all but deff. more power than it was stock....As for the TB spacer I wouldn’t bother spending the money just get a good CAI. If you want cheap power Buy yourself a spray kit. Cheap power f series have strong bottom ends. Look at it this way if you blow the engine they are like $120 at the pick n pull.

lol like I said slow...But that's also with a f-ed up tranny.

 

Its hit and miss with ebay no name parts.

Alot of people have no problems, and some do. So you are taking a risk, but if you get a good one then you got a hell of a deal.

Really, the minimum I would go with would be Megan Racing. Should be about $130ish if that.

You're going to lose low end torque, but you'll feel the difference in the high rpms.
