Default header selection?

which kind of header will give me optimal performance...i know that the ex has a 4-2-1 and the lx and dx just have a 4-1 stock...i'm planning on a 4-2-1, but which company is good?...also is 1 piece or 2 piece a better investment

hello...misa (or the zero forum search feature...whichever you claim to be)...yes we have met before...i have searched...i tried the following...header selection...headers selection...headers...header...exaust manifold...4-2-1 header...4-2-1 headers...and came up with nothing in terms of reviews for which brand or style is a good choice...i'm pretty sure that i'll go with the dc ceramic 4-2-1...but i was just curious if anyone had better results with a different header...

it doesnt matter what header you use, it will give you NOTHING if you dont delete the stock o2 sensor housing, and wtf did all the damned archives go to

i dunno...i feel your anger on the whole archives thing...you used to be able to get a whole list of results when you search and now you only get 1 or 2 (if any) posts about the wrong thing...and why won't the header give any power gains if the stock o2 sensor housing is remains...is this the most restrictive part of the manifold?

yes, you only flow as much as your smallest restriction....

i am currently debating about ordering another kamikaze manifold and making it a 4-1 long tube design as opposed to my chap and easy fix of having 2.5" from the header collector on back out......

but other things need to be made and done....what to do, what to do
