Default What is the difference between DC Sports 4-2-1 Ceremic headers and stock headers?

I just received my DC Sports 4-2-1 Header and it looks just like my stock header in design. What will I gain from this? They are advertised to increase Horse Power by 10-12HP.

Well I already have a Catback Exhaust system. Also I will be adding a tuned P72, with a Hondata S100. When I looked at the design on the site it looked at lot different. When you put the 2 next to each other the design is the same.

The difference between DC and STOCK is when you have a DC, your pocket is $3-400 lighter and your car is still slow.

I actually have this header with a modded 2.5" collector and noticed a siginificant difference up top. DC header not modded is a POS, but if you are on a tight budget you can mod the collector and get some gains on it. Good luck.
