I got the money and im looking at the dc header 4 2 1 on ebay for about $280. out the door shipping and all

I was wondering what one i should get, the 2 piece or the 1 piece. Is their a difference besides installation. is the 1 piece header that much harder?

Ive installed my intake,2 piece header, and exaust before on a civic.

 

i think there the same amount of time to install

 

I've never installed a one piece, but after the bit of shoe-horning I did on my one piece I could not fathom a quick install using a single floor jack. Best of luck.

 

$280 on ebay?! I got mine for less than that brand new...

One piece isn't all that hard to install quickly, although granted I do have the unlimited access of a lift. Honestly it just took a bit of maneuvering to get it up there, the hardest part was reattaching the header bracket.

 

I've done both styles and a one piece is alot more time consuming than a two piece. 2 piece is an easy-er install, but more likely for exsahust leaks. I'd go one piece.

 

I'd prefer the1 peice for better top end power... but I guess it just preference.

 

for installation ease = 2 piece version
leak free = 1 piece version

for me i would go w/ 2 piece header.. i like how they are constructed

 

yeah, the 2 piece is a little easier to put in but i would prefere the 1 piece.

 

What type of car do you have? And what motor?

 

I like the two piece cuz I can just drop the downpipe when I need to replace the O2 sensor. Super easy to install, too.

One piece is that much lighter. Big whoop.

DONT BUY ON EBAY. THOSE ARE ALL FAKE "DC S". S stands for "style", style meaning fake. But a lot of sellers just outright lie.
