As stated, looking for a NB exhaust header, preferrably 01+, stock or aftermarket (decent shape), non Cali (no pre-cat).

The story.... My Cali-Emissions NB was down on power at the last dyno day. A CEL had also popped after the last track event . Plan was to change the O2's to see if that fixed the problem (cheap enough to do). Pulled the mid-pipe to get one of the O2's out, and found that my pre-cat has partially self distructed, partially plugging up my downstream cat. That explains the power issue.

So, now thinking of converting to non-Cali, which for this car is just the header, a new O2 bung on the other side of the downstream cat, and an extended O2 wire. Could just gut the pre-cat entirely, but if somebody has one of the nicer 01+ headers laying around somewhere.....

<edit, if stock, looks like I'd need the EGR pipe too...>

Thanks!
-Dustin

I have one, pretty sure the EGR tube on it is undamaged as well.

$75?

You should just one of these instead. Your supposed to take advantage of the opportunity when your car give you the chance to upgrade. :D

Normally I'd agree, but there's some probability that this car will be on the market at the end of the year, once I finish building my formerly-ITA prepped Integra and get it through a couple track days to shake it out (i.e. don't want to sink too much money into it).

I have an 03 header if you're still looking.
