Default New Megan Header for the S2000!

I was waiting for the Header from Megan to see the how they looked like and I checked their site today and Saw that they had them made and on offer...
The price of 400$ is great but are they any good only Dyno and time will tell.
As comparing other header pictures with theirs only the 5Zigen header looks like it and I didn't compare the Megan with the OBX and the DC.
They look Great polished and I have a Megan Test pipe which is Great because its Resonated and you cant beat that price...
Thoughts welcome...

From my searches, thus far all of the cheaper header models available for the S2000 gain no power, or even lose power. I guess you'll never know until someone tests this particular one (btw, on an I-4 engine like the S2K's, there is only one header, not multiple "headers," thus it shouldn't be pluralized. Sorry, just a pet-peeve of mine).

Someone should get these and write a review, I'll try to convince a friend to get some dyno numbers before and after.

I could care less how they look as you can barely see the thing after installed. However that IS cheap. Megan is pretty popular on the Subaru boards for the uppipe/downpipes/exhausts i believe. I've never heard much about their experience with honda applications tho, other than the test pipe.

Well I will be Installing a Comptech S/C this month and At the same time put Supersprint Exhaust and now I have a Megan test pipe and the only thing missing will be an aftermarket header....
Not that the S2000 needs one but it wont hurt to have one and have my mind of that...
I would get the Comptech header but I don't have a Grand in my pocket right now and would give the Megan a Shot...
And 1000$ plus is too much now for me since I am overspending now....And 1000$ for catback is only acceptable for the Sound the Exhausts would make and that's most important and that the only justification for those 1000$ spent....No power gain just Ear satisfaction.
Ps.
Just got mail From Megan ...they will dyno it next Week so hopefully we will have something to go on as a fact...

i got an offer to get one for free if i paid for install/dyno before and after, which ended up costing a little bit more than the actual header itself....so i passed. i personally wouldn't expect to gain any sort of significant horsepower from this though. i'd be curious to see if someone does do a before/after dyno though.
