if u have alot of dough to spend then u can get the big dog headers (rmf, smsp) but if u kinda on a budget then u definitely cant go wrong with JDM ITR. but like previously stated, all those high flow cats stuff, u aint gonna see difference unless u go internals. look into camshafts

That's pretty misleading. A high-end header will perform much better than a lesser model, and the benefits will be even more pronounced on a larger displacement motor. I'd personally suggest SMSP.

On a 92 DA you don't really need an $800 header unless you plan to do some serious racing. For DD any header is just fine. It's all about priorities. You can almost get an entire turbo setup for $800.

You never "need" a top-shelf header. However, he asked:

you dont really need any of those expensive headers. just get a dc sports 4-1 for high end power or 4-2-1 for low end. it goes for $300 only
