How To Install an Exhaust Header Acura Integra 1990-2001

I’ve had this DC sport header for more than 10 years waiting for the day I got this car. The day has come and in this video I install this header onto my new GSR.

I’ve listed coverage of all Integras from 1990-2001 because the engines, even the non VTEC engines, are similar enough where the information covered will apply even though this is technically specific to the 2001 GSR model.
