Looking good bro

You and speed bumps will become enemys.

Nice ride mate, she looks sweet.

So far, not a simgle scrap on the header. Clearance is nice, and a lot of carefull driving around speed bumps for sure....

really nice headers...keep us posted

Clearance is good.
I had the chance to check it yesterday, and has a tiny litle scrape. My car is not so low (riding on eibach pro springs).
In my case it was just bolt on. My car has the cat removed sometime ago, but it just bolted right with no further mods. I had the OEM header before.

 

[iceman]

so it eliminated cat and bolted straight to exhaust ? if so has your exhaust been modified or totally stock ?

I was running the OEM header bolted to the line, and i just unbolted and mounted the new header. When cat was eliminated the pipe that replaced it was made the length to reach and bolt to the header.
Hope i was clear. Let me know.
Are you using his header????

 

[iceman]

so you bought pipe that is available with header to attach to exhaust ? sorry for confusion

i recommended this header to my friend who bought then bought 1, proven design with good ground clearence

i personally run another race header that friend designed with well known manufacturer in u.s but ground clearence is very poor

have you driven your car with the rmf header yet ? cars that run this type of header make very unique sound, nice as different to every other honda that has intake and exhaust bolted on

your car is lookin good, keep up the good work

Iceman, thanks for the compliments.
About the header, no i didnt use any test pipe or anything, just the exhaust pipe was custom welded to another piece of pipe to replace the cat. Its welded to the OEM pipe, to lenghten it to reach the OEM header bolt. The RMF was just blted to the line i had modified previously. (ill try to take a pic on the night or tomorrow).
On the sound, it IS different and nice, i like it. I´m using a spoon N1 exhaust with it, and just love how it sounds....
