The Toda headers are as out as they're ever going to be ...

Yes they're for the CL7 Euro R with the K20A, but they'll fit with very minor modifications and work equally well in conjunction with the CL9 Accord with the K24A.
You'll need deep pockets but the Toda and Maxim Works headers are widely regarded as being the best two header options available.

You're a bloody tease James! ;) :thumbsup:Quote:

I said under $500...if you want to be exact it was $460AUD delivered. Considering the same item ranges from $265USD on ebay to $434USD MSRP, then add UPS/FedEx onto that of approx $105USD as none of them are likely to ship USPS.
Then consider the only other headers available for the CL9 is Comptech, which is almost double the price with slightly less gains, but made of stainless steel, and OBX which is also stainless steel and clone of the DC header but cheaper and with questionably worse quality. The OBX was too much of a gamble as it's an unknown and unreviewed quantity.
The other options are JDM headers for the CL7 from Maxim Works (M-Bit), TODA etc which require modification to fit and are $1500AUD+ for what amounts most likely to similar gains but with superior quality.
No GST or Customs duty had to be paid.
That makes it a bargain in my opinion.
I'm paying A$550 for them through Online Performance. They had to order them in from the US as well.
The only reason I went with them was because they will honour the DC Sports warranty on the extractors which I thought might come in handy given their track record in the US.
I also told them upfront to ensure that they were the updated version with the extra welds so if they're not then I won't be paying a cent for them!!

Whao matt, I was offline for a few days and you got the DC header already!! and Rod too!! woohoo~
When are you guys going installing it? are you fitting with aftermarket hi flow cat or mod the exisiting cat?
Hey Steve, thought you'd been quiet for a while!
I'm planning on installing the header myself this weekend. I haven't got a Cat sorted yet, so I'll be retaining the OEM cat and reinstalling my modified heat shield. Now I've got a template from which to make the Honda flange the plug and play high flow metal cat will not be too far away.
I'm joining the DC Sports BandWagon too HEEHEEHEE! Ordered mine too :D
Wow, few weeks ago it was CAIs now headers. Gotta catch up quick!
Awesome!. Glad you must've managed to work something out with Norm ;)Quote:
