It just depends on what you are doing and your setup. I prefer 4-1 because i think its useless to try and had touque to a honda motor. It you will get better high end power with 4-1 but lack slightly bottem end. The 4-2-1 has more midrange power but as little potenal topend if your going to NA mod your car!!

I dont know. I have always used dc headers and no problems. Its pretty much the only i would use. Its has proven perforance and they dont cost an arm and or a leg.

on some applications, its design is very similar to stock, which isnt exactly something that adds performance.
