from the website, the header is $1300 and the exhaust is $900 which is cheaper than the mugen twin loop.
Erp... thought it was the other way around!

Mugen is owned and run by Hirotoshi Honda, the eldest son of Soichiro Honda, the man who founded the Honda Motor Company. It has operated since the early 1970s preparing competition engines for Honda, often with unofficial help from the main Honda firm.
So that dude was partially right. Mugen was started by the same people who started Honda. I wouldn't go quite as far as to say its like "STi > Subaru", "SVT > Ford", etc, but Honda and Mugen are very closely intertwined.
He's partially right in that they're Honda's prodigal sons, but they are not a racing division of Acura... that's what I was pointing out... Closely related and same company are vastly different...
And they're no longer run by the son of Honda 'cause he got slammed bigtime for tax evasion... It's all on HAN's front page...
