Megan. Header doesn't do a whole lot for these cars. It's not worth spending a shitton of money on one. Besides, AEM sold DC to Pilot Automotive earlier this year. All the DC stuff was on national back order for most of this year while they had the factory set up in China or something. It's probably the same thing with a DC sticker on the box. Not worth the extra money.

I'd say go for an e-bay header, You'll see about the same gains from one of those, anyway. And; You'll have money for other mods.

Just look for a used pacesetter. I got mine for $70 off ebay. Pics are in my wiki page.

Hell. I've got a used Pacesetter I'd sell for $50. Only thing is, it needs a flange welded on for the cat and could probably use a fresh coat of paint.

Contact mark bullet about getting a custom long tube made.

I've seen custom headers on all motor hondas that look absolutely fucking sick and make nasty hp compared to most headers you can just buy.... Ofcourse, the gains are going to depend on what has been done to your engine.

Yeah, i'd probably slap you for buying a dc anything except for one of those nifty twin canister mufflers. Those were fucking cool and definately caught my attention when they came out.

Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....

I made Mark Bullet's long tube. I would be willing to make more, but you will have to supply a head flange if you want the price to stay down. Shoot me an email-not an IM- if your interested. I check my email more often. I will also need a list of mods, if any. Because each header is very engine specific.

Creative thinking? Ingenuity? Hell, It's just an obsession!

Pacesetter FTW. No need to spend crazy amount of money. And just get some DEI header wrap or something similar and wrap the damn thing.
