Nice I second the PLM

No offense to anyone 2-4whp isn't impressive for a header upgrade though lol

The collector doesn't look like it seals with the cat. Have you checked it for leaks?

Well bolt on's in general for the s2000 wont do to much power wise, so if you can gain a couple whp and drop some weight for $100, I dont see whats wrong with that. Of course if your trying to get every HP possible out of your NA set-up, you would want a header with proven gains, but thats obviously not what the OP was worried about. As long as he doesnt actually loose power, its a good deal.

As long as he is happy, everyone else should be happy for him.

What type of metal is it? I had a buddy that tried an ebay header a while back for his da integra. As scary as it sounds, after driving it around the block to check for leaks, the runners were glowing red.

i also have them. Its not scary at all.
They also turned the same color and stayed this color. It was better than my 150 000KM stock red rusted headers. The weight was half of the stock ones.

I gained throttle response throughout 1st & 2nd gear.

These are legit. I've been thinking about picking one up and now I think I will. For $80 it's a steal.

Got these myself to a few months ago, they are still doing great so buy with confidence from DPTmotorsports from Ebay.

I've had Ebay headers before (not on my s2000). The only problem I had from them is they all tarnish and surface rust so bad you cant tell they were once polished and shiny.

Now don't be like everyone else and not dyno it, thats what everyone hates about these threads.. People get interested in the product you say is good, but theres no proof its really good besides it looks good.

I'm defiantly interested in picking one of these up, even for shits and giggles.
