I can get one really really cheap, but is it even worth putting in? Would look better than the stock iron POS in there now.

Lose some weight. Minimal power gains though.

I would concider it to be relitivily close to the stock manafold..Concidering the JDM header makes substancial differences , I wouldnt even wast the tought of using the DC header...

dude, if you got a ITR, get the best... cuz the ITR is already pretty highly tuned, so the only good way to increase power is by using the best. but the "you get what you pay for" train of though isnt correct 100% of the time... I paid like $300 for a DC header, when the Kamikazi header for much less, woulda been a better performance choice. But for the R, I recommend going JDM ITR or going with Mugen or Comptech or other high end companies.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw this topic...it's only good if you're looking to shed some weight from your car, as the stock header is more of a manifold.
