Hey guys im looking into buying headers and i need a little advice. I already have a greddy cat back and the headers look nice too but, they are really expensive. i just found DC sports headers on nopi and they look really nice. the price looks better too. tell me what you think. thanx

buy a set of header from ebay to save money and have the set ceramic coated....coating will retaina nice silver look to it. I might just might have a picture of the headers on my superbee if you would like to see how the look after a few years....i will have to chk.

Another option would be to go to a site like Jet-Hot and buy the header pre-coated. I think the guy at Jet-Hot (based here in Phoenix) quoted me about $270ish for the Pacesetter 4-2-1 in their super-badass-pimp-finish. I wouldn't spend too much money buying a name plate when it comes to a header.

They have it..just haven't sold one...I'm waiting to Dyno one as soon as Jason gets around to sending it. I'm patient though, and he's swamped with work, but according to him...this is most likely the best header out there. High flow cat or test pipe and exhaust needed for optimum results. You have to have an exhaust shop fabricate a piece of tubing to join the header to the cat...not hard though...a place here quoted me $30 to do it.

it was explained to me, that most headers for our cars dont give gains because they are just re-tubed stock manifolds...no real testing goes into them.
to my knowledge DC sports actually did testing on their header, so it should give better gains than others.
i would take the DC sports over any header out right now, and ill be buying it soon. its 240$ on adventon.com(it says 380, but just click checkout and you get an 'instant rebate')
