Default DC header on a D16Y8 worth screwing with? N|A

Ok is it worth the money? Has anyone done this with basic intake\exhaust and noticed any gain what so ever?

I'm about to buy/install a DC header for the D16Y8 (96-00 civic EX) on my car. Right now I have a chikara 4-2-1 tork step header that was designed for the D16A6 (88-91 civic/crx). I think the DC header is designed very well, and I'm willing to replace my aftermarket header with a DC.

(my setup is in my sig)

We'll see if there are any improvements...

I have one on my y8 and I did have a noticeable gain. I've had it for about a year now and it still looks new.

i have one on my y8. definitely better on top end, but lost a little bit on torque down low.

it's worth it
