Stuff off ebay? - Honda Prelude Forum

I have a 95 Prelude SI, and I have been looking at all this stuff on ebay and I was wondering if No name headers, and exhausts are actually worth it? Especially all the BOMZ Products.

i was wondering that too. i am ready to buy a header and they have to all be relatively the same. or no?

um...i don't think they are worth it at all!! they're all pieces of sh*t if you ask me....just save up some more money and get some good headers or whatever you want...that's the best way to go there!

they are not all the same... some are better than others.

we are talking about the life of your car here.... you'd wanna buy quality brand name products that are trusted.... or else if you end up buying this no name stuff, you will hurt your engines life and things will go wrong.

ok i'll be the first to say differernt... i have a custom CAI with an ebay filter, and an ebay fireball style exhaust. and i love them. my older brother has a prelude with all the name brand part, dc headers, aem intake, n1 exhuast and when we race it is an even race. and we have swap cars and raced and we still are even. for some parts, metal is metal. so i'm going to say it doesn't matter. why pay 200 for metal that says AEM when you can pay 30 for somethign just like it that say IEM? but on some things you do get what you pay for... liek for suspention i would pull out the money and buy good stuff. but for something like I/H/E i would get anything. any H motor don't do well with bolt on anyways so i been told, they are not like the K motor that gain 15 hp form headers. ..... but this is just my 0.02

thats why i asked... my friend got intake header catback and cat all no name brand off of ebay and his car runs fine and has a noticible gain in horsepower. i was wondering if the stuff was name brannd if it could be better.

you can get a used dc cc header for like 150-170. for that cheap i dont think its worth going with some no name product.
