Wich header is the best choise for a Honda Civic Coupe 1.6 16v (sohc vtec)

DC Sports 4-2-1

or

DC Sports 4-1

And why?

It's not meant for a smoother daily ride, but for the 'power', to be quicker at 100 km/h/ mph

Out of every "game"

4-2-1 is mid range

4-1 is top end

as for more power for your sohc good luck. i really doubt you're going to notice a differance

Twan

Yes i know that, but wich one is the best choise for me?

Out of every "game"

4-2-1 i think, you need more mid than top

Twan

Do you now somebody with an experience with it

save your money.

brand name intake and header will yield very little results, but they could get you started on piecing together a nice turbo kit

p.s. is it really a d16z9 not z6 or y8 in the netherlands?

dc headers suck. i know by experience. look out there for a good quality header. but i see you have a single cam so i dont think they will help you alot.

Soo much single cam hate these days, I've got a 4-2-1 and i would say decent gains with exhaust. I dont know about DC though. Try and trade somebody your stock exhaust and header for theirs, thats what I did.

theres crazy love for the SOHC these days, but none is reserved for NA D's

Twan

The problem in the Netherlands is that there's nobody with D16 @ DC 4-1, because there's none dealer who sales it.

And they are really expensive here: Like €359,- = 440 dollar!! (the 4-2-1 version)

Yes it's really a D16z9 in Holland
Still a student, sow B16 or something is to expensive for me


Still nobody know's how a DC 4-1 performs against a 4-2-1 on a D16 ?

Order it online you'll get a much better price, and stay away from dc headers there no good.

if you dont have a exhuast dont get it yet...i put on my roomates 4-1 on my Y8...didn't do much...there was alot of backpressure so probably didn't gain anything....i just swapped it out for my stock one...

schardbody

you will loose bottom end power if you install a header, regardless of what anyone says, dyno always proves it. stick w/ a stock manifold for best results.

4-2-1.
SOHC lack both, but more mid range

There's no such thing as top end for 4-1 LOL

Twan

Explain???

Twan

By the way, is there a big difference between de 4-2-1 and 4-1 about the ground clearance?
