Default Kamikaze Headers Or Dc Headers

I plan on putting some headers on my jdm h22...I was looking into it and i seem to find out that dc is not really worth it...Kamikaze offers 4-1 headers.anybody have these headers or have any advice to give me!

They sound like some kind of ebay header garbage. Don't get them.

DC is a good bargain header. But far from the best

He wasn't correcting your spelling actually, he was correcting your pluralization. You have a single header, not multiple.

Don't be a dick for no reason.

search this section for megan on the topic body... you can pick it up on ebay for ~$100 depending on who is selling. Don't get mad though when you don't get any performance gain out of it. I would only consider these copy cat headers (DC, Greddy, Megan, etc...) a DECENT replacement for stock until you can save up for something better... or if you are like me and needed something to legally drive after a h22a swap while waiting 2+ months for a custom header to be made.

A Custom Header will run in the range of 750-1200 depending on who makes it...if your looking to get an off the shelf header, not spend over 600+ go with a DC, or Greddy....but i strongly recommend modifying the collector to 2.5...Plelude motors have great airflow, if you can free it up, then you will see HP gains... I myself used to run a DC, but it is choking my motor up...I recently ordered a DTR-fab.com header and only takes 2 weeks to make, not 2 months...As far as an Ebay header, they are garbage...you get what you pay for...(leaks, cracks, etc.)

I would say look at this company

http://www.hytechexhaust.com/

They are around $1050 but they give the best results &lt;------ Depending on setup and dyno

I mean look at the skills on this thing

Kingmotorsports.com

Only reason I got the mugen header cause I got a Mugen exhaust. If I didn't have the exhaust I would of gotten the SMSP header and custom exhaust from Kteller.
