Should I buy header or exhaust first and if I were to just buy the header first would it add any HP with just the stock cat and exhaust along with the comptech icebox?

true, but either way unless you get both there is going to be a bottleneck somewhere, and iw as thinking header because it generally makes more power (assuming you arent a cheap ass and you actually buy a good product)
It seems like I've always heard that Integras make more power with headers than exhaust. The stock exhaust is supposedly at least reasonably efficient, but the header design is quite restrictive. Good headers I've heard are worth about 4-6 hp on a stock exhaust, while an exhaust w/the correct balance of back pressure/flow is only good for 2-4 hp on a slightly modded engine. If I were you I'd get a DC header, they seem to be the best without spending massive $$ for Spoon/Mugen, etc.

As long as you get both eventually it doesn't matter what one you get first.

uhh, we just discussed this...headers make more power...do you need to see pages of dyno graphs to prove this?LX98Civic said:I would get a cat-back first.
More performance and you can see it
