New Skunk2 Header - Raw unfinished, or Polished Stainless?

Hey Everyone,

Skunk2 is getting ready to release our all new line of MegaPower Headers and we'd like to guage some of the consumers opinions in the marketplace. We'll be coming out with the B header first, then a K swap header (which will fit all swaps), and then the 06+ Civic, RSX, and S2000.

What do most of you like? Raw unfinished stainless steel or polished stainless steel?

Polished stainless steel. Also what size are the primaries going to be. Will there be two versions or only one? Do you have any idea what the pricing is going to look like?

Raw and unfinished. I don't want to pay for shinies that I'll see once or twice as long as the performance is the same.

Will there be a catalytic converter option? If not, I might as well just get the Vibrant now. It's weird how there are a bunch of headers available, but only one with a cat (without some serious modifications). Market research much?

The header that comes with the Si includes the catalytic converter, so no Si header will be CARB legal.

Messing with the cat is illegal under federal law. The Si's header and cat are one piece. CARB can not circumvent federal law. Hence, no Si header will be CARB legal.
