I heard many good things about the jackson racing header and the comptech headers. It's a toss up between the 2.

I don't know much about the comtech header, but I've heard on several accounts of the Jackson Racing header breaking off at the attach bracket. Such is very similar to the problem that DC Sports currently has.

I currently drive a 03 type-s, and am also stuck in the position of not knowing which header to purchase. I've havent heard any problems with the Jackson Racing Header breaking as well as the DC sports....is that just for the Si or it goes for the RSX as well

Well, I've had my DC shorty on my ep for 3 years now withous any problems at all. But this is probably because I purchased it prior to AEM taking over.....dunno

mugen is $2000 something. it has a catalytic converter. that's why it's so much more expensive.

I haven't had any issues with the DC SS header, I would say it's worth giving it a try before spending a G on Mugen/Toda....got mine for like 350 from the shopping site.
