Description
PLM Power Driven K-Series RSX Header w/ High Flow Catalytic Converter – Fits K20 & K24 Engines
The PLM Power Driven RSX K-Series Header with Bolt-On High Flow Cat is a race-inspired exhaust upgrade designed to extract the full potential of your K20 or K24 engine swap. Built specifically for the Acura RSX and EP3 chassis, this setup enhances both horsepower and torque by improving exhaust flow with its short-tube Tri-Y header design and a bolt-on 200-cell high-flow metallic catalytic converter.

Whether you're daily driving or prepping for the next race, this header is an essential mod for K-swapped RSXs looking for the perfect blend of sound, power, and quality.
