I'm in Bethesda if you are interested, it's got some miles on it, but no leaks and it sounds good.

Borla Gen 2 here. Was fantastic for $600ish dollars or whatever it costs at the time.

Do you have a preference to equal length or unequal length? What mods do you currently have? What are your power goals? The best bang for buck are the tomei headers or of you want more optimized headers look at ptuning or p&l headers. The equal length will make more power and be more efficient but be more Honda sounding, unequal will give you a rumble. When tuned both kill torque dip. Also contact your tuner, he may have a preference.

I'm selling my brand new PLM headers that I was going to use with the Works kit. But it's looking like I'm going to just be sticking with the BORLA that is already on my car.

I'm partial to the UEL header myself. Borla makes a good one as well as Rev Works. With the Borla, make absolute sure you get the second gen as the first one was total crap. I run the Rev Work header myself. Both are UEL and get you the rumble and completely negate the torque dip and completely change the feel of the lower end!

have you had the 1st gen? I have it on my car now and am the second owner and couldn't be more happy. Absolutely zero issues.

I was spooked by the terrible quality they were putting out. I really wanted one, but I saw too many examples both on the forums and in person of horrible quality. It seems they really stepped up their game with the second generation though, so that's good at least! I think it's the cheapest UEL one you can get.

I imagine some good ones got through though. Not to thread jack, but did you manage to check out the collector and welds prior to installation?
