I am thinking of gettin some headers for my 99ex.
I have gotten a few interior things off ebay, is it
dangerous to get headers off ebay?? i dont know if i
should trust it...also they say the headers will give you
like 10 hp or so...is this for real and also is there
+/- gas mpg??

As long as its from a reputable brand, and a wholesaler as opposed to a single person. Maybe 5hp across the board and possibly 10 peak if your lucky. 4cyl only has one header. DC is supposed to be good. But I would use the money on something else.

But on the plus side your gas mileage should go up

Ceramic is lighter, but are known to rust out over the years (takes a while) and are also cheaper. Stainless are heavier, but hold up better to wear, will also be a LITTLE harder to dent than a ceramic unit.

As far as one piece and 2 piece, the only advantage to the 2 piece is ease of installation, in all other aspects, the 1 piece is superior.
