Header Suggestions for 2007 TSX
Anyone got any suggestions? I want to keep the orginal exhaust for now but I want to change my headers. Does anyone know of any headers for on 07 5spd w/navi that will still connect to the stock exhaust?

Comptech! Don't break but you get a slight vibration.

Does the Comptech vibrate because of fitting problems? does it vibrate the whole car? Will that header connect to the stock exhaust nicely?

What is your price range for the header (singular not plural)?
Topspeed (Stainless steel DC Copy) around $200
DC Sports (Ceramic coated mild steel) around $300
Comptech Stainless Steel around $500
Feels K24 Header around $1500 + shipping from Japan
Hytech Custom Header around $1300 (possibly need custom cat from Hytech, or straight-pipe)
WeaponR Race Header (no cat, straight-pipe) around $500

Regarding to the DC Sport Verson 2 Header, I have a little update.
My car has been abused by hard rock ice recently due to the weather, and cause my front lip, foglight to break, also messed up my Greddy SP2 exhaust and cause exhaust leak. I just went to my mechanic today to fix the exhaust leak, and check on the header flexpipe. I was hoping it to crack so I can have a reason to swap a new double braided flexpipe on, UNFORTUNATELY, it still holding up pretty good. There's a very very tiny exhaust gas leak (almost un-detectable type) @ the flexpipe, but its the nature of this header, and nothing serious.

I went with the Comptech header. One thing that I have noticed though is when i have my headlights and fogs on at night, when I'm at a stop light my car vibrates. This was noticed immediately after i installed the headers. It must be because the comptech headers aren't really stabilized to the car well and I might need a better battery.

^ Random CAT just gives you more airflow, hence more power depending on what kind of engine modifications you have. RT CAT has 200 CEL, compared to your 08 600CEL cat, more flow of air, more power.
I might be selling my RT CAT too

I've had a Topspeed header on my car for over six months and noticed "the hiss" for almost the last month. Swapped to the Comptech header last week and can say the Topspeed is good for most applications, especially A/T cars but the CT is more suited for high revving drivers that drive & launch hard.
TS is a good overall design but the flexpipe needs to swapped for one longer and of better quality. The CT header is better in every aspect (better torque everywhere, cleaner welds, NEAR STOCK FLEX PIPE LAYOUT) but costs twice as much.

are you feeling any increased vibration after installing the comptech header? that seems to be the only complaint with it from what i've read.

Why does everyone have that vibrating problem with the Comptech header? I have had my on for a year now I have have only felt a vibration twice and both times I had the A/C on. I never have had a vibration from this header other then those two times.
