i heard stock honda header is already built good,
honda did a lot of research on S2k header
plus i dont think none of the aftermarket header will really gain HP but it sure saves a lot of weight compare to stock one........

the gains you get on a header for the price you pay can be put to better use if your engine is still stock. i personally run a toda, but the stock header was very well built so most of the gains you'd see with the butt dyno would be from loss of weight and not actual power.

Instead of giving you my opinion on the exhaust, just go and attend one of your local S2k meets and decide for yourself.

Spoon makes a 4-1, not a 4-2-1 header for this car.

Best is meaningless without knowing that you're looking for. Different header designs emphasize mid-range power, others emphasize top end so there's no way to answer your question without more information.

Try the search button, this has been discussed many many times before. Really.

Mugen is a good header. Makes good mid range power.

T1R makes a good catback (single) Good gains
