I don't like DC. Poor customer service and if your DC headers were to crack.. good luck on trying to get DC to replace them.

depending on its price usually (not always) makes up the quality

imo, i think the best bang for the buck out now is the buddyclub

or toda, its about the same price for the performance and you like the dc race header but you have ss, so they are better than ceramic

</TD></TR></TABLE>toda is around 1200
bc is around 800 i believe
performs very similar but not exact

and yes, the ss is decades better than the ceramic
at least in quality
ceramic are easy to repair but are more vulnerable
ss can take more abuse but i'm not sure how easy it is to repair, i wouldn't imagine that it would be that difficult

I went the cheaper route Megan header/test pipe, and I couldn't be happier with the power gains. Plus I only spent 350 for both brand new.

I have the MEGAN RACING header on my car. I really like it a lot. Feels a lot better than a stock EP3. Sounds amazing coming out of my magnaflow.


DC Sports is together with AEM... I don't have much experience with them though. Always seem ricey to me...?
