Yes they are the same. I wouldnt buy a DC though. Go with a Mugen, J's or a nicer brand. DC's tend to crack and break and are not that great of quallity.

I have the mugen header and I love it. It is probly the best header aside from my DTR for the k24 I have.

Im not sure of the gains since I haven't been to a dyno yet. Waiting to test a lot of products before doing so. As far as feel? It feels great, a nice low end addition. Much better than the DC I had on my d16a6 (which is a close comparison)

Ive owned 3 DC headers over the years, and none of them has ever cracked, the jdm 4-1 dc with the 2.5" collector is supposed to be the best header you can get for under 800
your just paying for a name if you go with mugen or j's
go to the allmotor section and see how many blingy jdm headers the guys with the big numbers are running...

A USDM Fit header will bolt up to your engine and has the same port spacings and dimensions BUT it will not be a direct bolt on at the collector. JDM and others besides the USDM ones have the O-2 sensor in the convertor not in the header like the USDM ones so you will have to see if your Primary (front) O-2 sensor will screw into the USDM header or get a USDM primary O-2 sensor. The front of the convertor is not the same configuration as the USDM one and will have to be modified to attach to the USDM header.

WHY BOTHER there are a bunch more brands of Jazz/Fit headers made for you car all over the world using a USDM one is just a waste of energy.

Did you not read what I said at all? I said it is better than the DC I had on my D16a6 (which is as close as a comparison I could come with) My DC rusted out and looked like complete crap after several months and never had the quality the Mugen header I have now had out of the box. Out of all the headers I have owned on various cars the Mugen and DTR are probly the best I've seen. I already said I didn't have a dyno number for the Mugen but I think quality plays a huge role when I buy something. I've seen a lot of other brands rust out here in florida and turn to crap in a couple months. Before you make a comment make sure you read what was said first.
