Default Vision Header VS JDM DC Header

Well Im trying to pull some more horse power out of my car like everyone else here and decided to try a different header
So I went with a good priced improvement over my JDM DC SS 4-1 and went with a VISION SS 4-1 that from what I hear is like a spoon replica or they are spoon's suppliers or something like that. Any ways here are the pics.



VISION ON THE LEFT



VISION ON THE RIGHT



VISION ON BOTTOM



Kind of looks like Vision smoothes out the inside of thier welds which I thought was nice! It seemed like a VERY well made header!



The only problem I found was that it did NOT line up with the bottom mount ? oh well



On the car


and an engine bay shot for fun

cool beans. Did you happen to do a dyno run before installing the Vision header?

how much was it? Doesnt look like anything special. Definitely different than the 2.5" spoon.

looks like a basic collector and slightly larger tubing than the DC.

This seemed to be a big improvment in quality
just some things I noticed where
ported flanges
larger tubing
thicker flanges
better weds
and a different down tube design
as for power differences, I did notice a little on the butt dyno but you know how accurate that is
I purchased the header from ITR98 1162

Doesn't look identical to me, but similar. It resembles the DC more if you ask me by the way the runners go to the collector. If we had them side by side, we might be able to compare, but photos can't really tell much. Any pics of the ports and of the collector?

You guys are right. I was thinking about another header that had the runners the same way as the Vision.... anyone have a pic of the dynamic 4-1? Or the megan? Perhaps it was one of those?
