BS statement. DC sports headers are dyno proven to be garbage.

DC headers do not do very much for an h22 at all.

However, H23's have very restrictive exhaust manifolds, so even Megan and DC headers will see a nice improvement for the money.

But if you're running an h22, I wouldn't bother with anything but quality.

RMF headers, I've heard nothing but amazing things.

those type of headers are expensive and hard to find (FRM and SMSP). Any other brand aside from these? I am not looking more than 500bucks. How bout greddy? is that good for h22? and they dont make any for SH.

It's not FRM, it's RMF.

If you just want a cheap header, buy one off ebay, they're all pretty much the same. Unless you go with the higher priced ones, you wont see much difference anyway.

i got one already from ebay and that stupid seller sent me a base model den i ended up modifying the dowpipe to fit. Now it's leaking somewhere but im sure it's not the part where it was welded. I might just get one the nopi. ..

DC headers are not the best headers, but if you mod the collector you will get ok gains. As I did with my H22.

Good luck

if you get a DC get teh 2.5 inch collector one. and that Nopi #1 header is NOT made by DC unless they make a lower end line for Nopi, after all Nopi has the #1 brand, then they ALSO have Nopi Ceramic Headers by DC Sports....the #1 brands are pretty good but are replicas, jsut like megan and obx.

I don't see a DC stainless steel for my SH most of the are ceramic and Im done w/ ceramic headers. Most of them are 2.5" aren't they? I don't really mind if ithey're replicas as long as they made them durable. I don't know why some people spent too much money on headers. Iv'e seen the mugen header it was f*ckn 1000 bucks.. Wow!

they are mostly 2.25 collectors, except for the DC one for 92-96 ludes that is marked as a 2.5 collector.
I am willing to bet that #1 brand ones are OBX. I have used the Nopi #1 brand intakes and they are reboxed CP Performance intakes which are inexpensive replicas of AEM intakes.

You would be better off just using a stock manifold. Its tubular, its stainless, and will be just fine until you can afford a quality header.
