some guy is selling DC headers ceramic coated and AEM power pulleys for $300 and its off a 5th gen prelude Type SH and i was wondering is that worth it? what do you guys think?

 

help a prelude owner out

 

personally i would jump on it, but i would check the header first and see how long the pulleys were used for.

 

Hey. Will a base header will on an sh. because i have a dc sports header for sale. the header is off of my 97 si or base model. i will sale it for $150 plus shipping. i used it for around a year. i have just finished painting it. looks pretty sweet.

 

No, it will not fit. There is no USDM '97 Si model, it's just called "base".

 

I personally would not waste my money on a DC header, I would rather get a JDM stock header, they are on ebay and have a much better downpipe that allows better air flow.

 

Thanks guys, he only had the DC header and pulleys on for 2000 miles. i might be able to talk him down little bit but what do you guys think should i buy it or not?

 

dc header

sounds like a good deal though. I think i spent over $300 for my header a while back. Worst mistake I ever made. Noticed a huge power loss after we put it on.

for some reason it felt like i gained low end power but lost top end

so is the DC header not good? what about the AEM pulleys?

 

aem pulleys and stock to mild audio system dc header

 

in most situations you won't lose power w/a dc vs a stock one,
but you won't gain much over a stock jdm one

I see you have never seen, a JDM h22a header before....

 

apparently not lol

 

what does it look like? shouldn't it be the same?

 

i would have give a big negative to the dc header. it is really not worth the money. as for the pulleys, frankly i have heard bad things about them. something about them throwing the belts out of balance or something. i would spend the money on something else if i were you.
