The JDM header has better clearance than the DC(I've heard they're horrible). I run the JDM and it works well for me. The best header, IMO, is the Toda. Hytech and SMSP also make outstanding products. They are all pricey but you get what you pay for.

you don't give up eh??
anyway, i didn't know there was such biased opinions about the JDM DC. IMO, it works great and the only benefit about the JDM ITR header is that it has better ground clearance and a heat shield.

I agree. From a performance and value perspective, the DC Sports JDM 4-1 has the edge with it's slightly lower cost, larger primaries, lack of inner welds at the flange, and better collector.

if you already have a JDM ITR header, i would see no reason for you to buy a JDM DC header. if you're going to upgrade, i would upgrade to something more performance oriented than the JDM DC such as the Toda or SMSP or Hytech.
btw, if you're wanting to buy any of the headers i mentioned, look at spending more than $600 for sure.

oh no, i have seen the quality of the welds on HT recently and it looked HORRIBLE. you could have bought a JDM DC for that price.
