Headers provide little to no gain, that's why threads on them are hard to find. But this thread has alot of posts about a cheap header https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-aftermarket-performance-modifications-23/obx-rx8-header-73445/

eBay has them for $250 by OBX. I wouldn't install them though. They get red hot, not sure I want that happening in my engine bay. I'll stick with factory and sacrifice the 1hp.

What I was going to say. Racing Beat has been long rumored to have some headers in the works also. Hymee's headers sounded very promising, I think I'll be looking to pick them up if/when he makes them available to the public.
