From what I last saw they are indeed a drop in. However skunk2 recommends a valve train upgrade as well.

I'm currently running the skunk2 stage1 with zero valve train upgrades. I have it tuned with hondata. I'm loving the gains. Zero issues.

So you don't have a header? The gains aren't going to be all that great without a header...
