Default Header question??

I had a question about getting a header for a 97 prelude base. I searched but it didn't come up with the information that I needed. Does the jdm header give you better gains than the usdm header? If so how much more and is it worth getting it? Where can I get one and how much do they usually go for?

The other question that I had is if there was any header that is more affordable than the mugen or smsp. Im looking for anything from 200 to about 500 at most. Is there anyone that makes one besides DC. I heard a lot of people say that the DC header sucks and that some actually loss power after installing one. Thanks for any info that you guys can give me.

I dont remember when and who but I saw someone on here say that they lost HP after a DC header install. Thanks for the info though. I guess I might look into it more.

As for the Greddy header I thought they didnt make one for the 5th gen. Didnt they only make one for the 4th gen. You can put that in a 5th gen but need to do some modifications to it right? Also how much gains are expected with the Greddy header.

Is it just me or does anyone find it strange that OverBoost1 is getting a header?
