I'm no expert (no where near that) but I've been asking the same question around for a while and survey says DC... Just make sure its a 4-2-1 not a 4-1, you'll want that low end power from the 4-2-1

The A'PEXi is of much better quality than the DC. The A'PEXi is all hand ported. If money isn't a problem, go for the A'PEXi.

The difference between the two is going to be slim to none.

They are both non-stepped, 2" collector, non-sequential 4-2-1 headers.

btw, apexi only makes a "gsr" application of their header. If you are die hard about getting one, you will have to adjust your b-pipe to make it fit.

I haven't dynoed it on the same car versus a DC Sports header, so I can't tell you definately. Just buy looking at the two headers, I can tell you it *should* make more power. I don't know what plans you have for your car in the future, but A'PEXi has a JDM style header available, with a 2.5" collector. Of course, this would require modification to your exhaust piping (cat/b-pipe), but the standard GT header is only available for GSR currently.

You might also consider the GReddy as a viable option to the DC Sports header. It's roughly the same price as well. You can contact me privately if you need any more info. as well.
