Depends on what you plan to do with the car. Drag? Road race? Autocross? Daily driver? Each design have specific purposes.

Yeah , i have to agree DC does make a nice header and they can be picked up for cheap ... I couldn't find anyone w/ a DC header fs when i was looking so i picked up a SS Autochrome header , no complaints

I've got one, I'll sell it to you for $950, it was barely used. If you are interested, I also have some ocean front property in AZ....

I'd say teh best header is Rage, SMSP, Bisi, etc. For a cheap header just to get you through a DC header should work fairly well. Some people have seemed to have luck w/ the Megan header's from ebay, I am currently using a DC knockoff from ebay that works better then stock, was $100, and is disposable when I boost the car later.

Ehhh, I like the HP Racing header better for the cost. They dynoed one in Turbo Magazine a while back on a 96 Dx and it made around 6hp. I dunno if that's a lie, but I wouldn't think that magazines would lie about that. I've had one and a buddy as well, we like em, and wouldn't get anything else unless we buy a used DC for cheap. Otherwise, go get one of them Bisi headers from Exospeed, that's the **** header for a d-series, if you have the cash...
