Looks nice and a decent price I agree. Its a manifold though , why do we say header on here , I am sure if I went to the local Honda dealer he wouldn't have a clue what a Header was .

Looks like all those welds would play havoc with the gas flow
I'd lay money one of them will fail after a while due to engine movement on the throttle.
May be OK if you fit an engine damper?

Depends if they ground off all the splatter etc...
That would mean serious time in labour though
Hmmm

i could do with a new manifold to improve the exhaust side of things in line with the inlet..
