Out of the two i'd probably go with the comptech 4-2-1. Not a fan of DC stuff.

agree with both of the above posters. SMSP is the way to go. Makes the best power of them all, great customer service, outstanding quality pieces.

now if its just between the DC and the comptech, I suggest comptech. I know a local buddy has one for sale and i used to own one on my ITR. made 218whp and i might even header test his, my smsp, and a DC header on a dyno if i can. But the comptech will make more power than a DC.

ok but on itr it's recommended 4-1 and the comptech ( 4-2-1 )

i have a deal for this part dc race stainless 500$ 4-1 or comptech 421 600$
who are the best
the smsp is too expensive for me

Since it's for an imaginary car, I've got an imaginary header that will triple your horsepower

But in his original post, he said it's a '99 USDM... Not CDN.

Don't touch DC Sports, Comptech is a great piece. My advice, stay stock, save up, and buy an SMS-P unit.

SMSP + SMSP Exhaust always the best you can get. I dont know how they do it but dyno charts prooven power over alot the compitetion. as for dc stay the hell away i have destroyed 3 headers from them lucky they were cheap but for how muhc i spent i could have got a nice headers first off.

Save for a bit longer and then pick up one of SMSP's 1-piece headers. You'll be happy you waited, and you won't be buying another header in a year or two.

I don't give a damn what friggen country he lives in, there is no such thing as a 1999 USDM ITR, period.

Best one would be a used comptech 4-2-1....
