Hondas are to slow for headers, thats why you guys only get a header.

Actually, on second thought, the worst that could happen is you don't tighten them right and have exhaust leaks which end up tearing shit up in the long run...but you don't sound like you're capable of or planning on putting them on yourself so you should be fine with that.
Hey, I could technically consider mine headers.
