or is it just name brand hype and any other header works the same?

 

the only reason theryre worth the money is because they have the carb # for them. As far as quality there are others out there with the same quality for cheaper.

 

Check my post on Tanabe B16 header

 

Personally I have never been happy with dcsports headers...but thats just me Ive owned a few over the years and last year I built a sohc on a buget and I bought a chikara torque step and honestly it was very ugly but it seemed to work really well

 

Yes they are, but it depends on your application.

People are gonna say they like this and they like that, and they tried this and it sucked. Its all depending on your setup.

i had a dc sports then sold and got a greddy ill never turn back

 

i'll say no everything i've seen DC either started as crap *tie bars are laughablely poor quaitly* and there headers do seem to rust up quickly even there coated ones.

I say find somthing else.

 

I have one it works ok. it is re strickting my motor though. I paid $100.00 for a 4-1 one piece and i would say it is worth getting, better than stock!!!!!

 

I hated my DC header, then bought a JDM ITR header. Can't beat OEM quality.

 

man i definitly agree with this guy oem honda is the way to go if you can afford an oem jdm header honda love!

 

I had DC Sport Header in my EG felt no power gain, but I had Comptech Hearders in my DC2 felt a big gain....DC is not worth the money

 

which oem header should i get?

i looked at comptech and greddy, no one has 91 CRX Si headers

 

You are buying a d series header dosn't have to be 91 specific

 

Dude, I have been running cheap *** pace headers in my crx, and have no problems.. I even used Nos on them, and no cracks.. Only paid 50 bucks for them... and you do feel the power gained once you bolt them on.. So, its all up to you...

 

they dont have D series period, and it goes by make and model anyway

 

i had dc on my 95 integra, they were ok.

But more importantly anyone know or have any comments about the HA Sport headers for the ef b16 swap?

 

I might be tripping but i had a dc 421 header on my old 91 SI with a d series

do not listen to this guy. the only gains you would feel from a pacesetter header are strictly placebo. I bought a pacesetter header for my b16 because my DC sports powdercoated one cracked/rotted/rusted (go figure). anyways, the pacesetter looked like it was welded by a 3 fingered midget, ******* sucked! but seriously, it looked liek some one had tried welding something together by melting solder with a lighter, then dripping it onto the 2 pieces form like 3 feet above the objects. i can not stress enough HOW BAD PACESETTER HEADERS ARE. i dont know maybe the guy who said thye were good had a stock header that was banged to ****, i dont know but whta ever u do, dont go pacesetter. if goign for a cheap header, i would consider an OBX one.

Try a 92-95 D16Z6 OEM exhaust manifold. Its a 4-2-1 design over your OEM 4-1.

 

yea dont get dc i used to love em but now i hate it, i have a 90 crx with a b16 4-1 ceramic header and i know they are too low for me, they are crushed to hell!... also the top of the header near the block was already starting to rust within half a year

and port the collector for extra HP

 

Rais your cars and you won't have problems. My ls/vtec with a gsr dc header has no problems, the header just doesn't flow enough for my motor

 

Enjoyed the hell out of my HP Racing header until I got my LoveFab.

Dude, before you go off trashing me. I wasn't suggesting that he go out and buy a pace header. I was making a statement that something free flowing will do the job, therefore before you go hand a bitch slap to someone read through the statement. I was suggesting the money be spent on something else that will give more performance to his vehicle.

 

sorry but i've still gotta tell him to stay the hell away from pacesetter, or any other cheap header thats of the same poor quality. its pure garbage, plain and simple. no point in spending money ont hat when a couple months down the road u will regret it and have to replace.
