we have an i4.. so there's only one header. not headers.

for me, i would get the comptech header or if you have the money, wait for a highend header to come out..

At the moment HyTech makes complete exhausts systems. Besides to add a header to the existing exhaust would be rather pointless. bottlebeck effect.

If I remember correctly 2.5 ID, I don't think the skunk2 is that spec besides bolting it to the exhaust currently impossible. John doesn't make any headers that are compatible yet with other exhausts

On a side note that I read above...I figured header(s) w/ stock exhaust would be a bottleneck affect but it seems in all the dynos you see on the internet from different vendors that its not in our cars...? Go figure.

it is a bottleneck with a stock exhaust but you'll still be gaining power from the header.. when i get my header, i'll stick with the stock exhaust for awhile. getting use to all the quietness from the tsx.. hearing the engine and intake is good enough for me for now.

Cause those off the shelf headers [DC, Comptech, etc.] are made purposely to bolt to stock or aftermarket exhausts. HyTech is different, which is why I make reference to that.
