Re: D16/B16 header question

No, they are different. And even if the bolt pattern was the same, the height of the block is much bigger for a crv/vtec. Even a B16a header is going to be too short. You'll need one for a B18c or specifically for a B20/vtec. I don't think an aftermarket header will line up exactly with your existing exhaust, the length should be different (either the header is too long or too shorts, can't recall which). But if you're looking for power, the stock exhaust is going to be too restrictive, you should go at least 2.5"

Here's some companies to check out for a header:

http://sms-products.com/Headers.html
http://www.hytechexhaust.com/
http://www.dtr-fab.com/product_header_b-series.html
http://www.importpowerhouse.com/cust..._manifolds.htm
Those are just a few companies that make good headers out there. Of course there are other companies that make cheaper ones, but thye don't always give you the best performance.
