only way to go if you're really looking to make power, and not just to put a header on the car for the bling. if you want something decent that will hold up, DC headers aren't bad. I just don't think you'll find anything to compare to bisimoto performance-wise

bisimoto header- hands down only for the big dogs who want power.


smsp header- second best expensive effective header.


megan,ebay,obx, header- there all almost the same the megan is more expensive. but they all perform the same. i personally have a ebay as a cheap back up for when i get my bisi header. it was worth it.

dc sports header- it performs well if not a tiny better than a ebay header only thing good about a dc is it has a carb exempt plate for us california guys.

Wouldn't you say DC Sports is worth the money if it doesn't 'bang' on you?

$300 once for DC or $150 twice for Megan???

Even if eBay ones are just as quality for Megan, why buy something over and over? Some people get a great product though. I'll only buy a high name w/ quality when it comes to a part that is such of importance. </TD></TR></TABLE>

I've heard of 1 breaking so far and have seen many on local cars with my own eyes with no problems.

So a prototype is $500-$800 ($500 for D series), whats the price for a new one after real production is done?

production was done a long time ago on the first version. second version will be available soon hopefully by the end of this month or early next month. bisi plan to bring us either a street version that will fit with ac and power steering and the race version. both i think will be in the 500 dollar range

$500 for a header is honestly too much IMO. Thats literally half of a pieced together turbo kit And w/ a header how much power are you expecting to make? Just get an ebay header and buy something else with the rest of the money.

Other than being CARB legal, the DC header also has MUCH better ground clearance than Megan.

I think it's a steal for $500... similar designs for the B and K series motors run $1000 or more.

I had an 4-2-1 HP Racing header, on my CRX Si for 4 years. I sold the car and the header is still on the car to this day. The power gain was extremely noticable!

If you are on a budget look for some name brands on ebay that are used. If you can find one look for a mugen header or a jackson racing header, it would be a good bet. I have also seen some used greddy's for under $200

I have a DC Sport 4-2-1 2pc. header. Fits real nice, it stuck up high too so no scrapage if you're dumped. I noticed the gains over stock right away. I am happy with it. I wouldn't spend any more, or get anything else for a d series. Want real power? Boost it.

We have run a bunch of headers on the dyno back to back.

Bisi is the best.

DC is good for the $

dyno charts showing the bisi header has an average of 8 hp gain over 3 dyno tests show that you get what you pay for.

for $500-$600 go buy a nitrous kit & get up to 50+ hp... not worth it in a header imo

I've been running a Megan header for a while on my 18a1 and it sounds very good. I agree with Tippyman about the welds on the collector not so great I re-welded mine and its just fine.
