I am looking into buying a Race Header, What is a good one?

I have heard That DcRh flex pipe or welds break alot

That The Megan Racing are nor worth the money

I can not afford A Buddy Club, Hytech, Etc.

Looking to spend between 400-550.

 

a used buddy club then .. megans arent that expensive ( race header) u can find a used buddyclub for that much egt on crsx and k20a and get to looking

 

you should have searched, there are tons of stupid threads like this. if you want a good header your going to pay more then 500 but the dchr is fine. ive never heard of the dcrh breaking other than maybe someone didnt upgrade the rear motor mount.

 

Buy a strup header then.

 

dcrh or strup.

vibrant has got an affordable header out too.

 

dc sports

 

A bunch of guys over on EPhatch.com say that the OBX vers. 3 is a good RH and that it produces more power than the DCRH.

 

and they are right

 

if you have $400+ to spend then get a Buddy CLub RH or if your looking for something cheaper in your range then get a Jackson Racing RH which is hard to find now...I believe there is still 1 in the classifieds in ephatch.com

 

The Buddy Club is way more then 400$

 

I've seen around $400 used, but definitely not new.

 

yeah good luck with both a buddy club for that price. Just buy any header you'll still love it and notice one hell of a difference. DC is IMO best bang for the buck. Cheap yet effective. One thing you can do is cut off the lower hanger, that way the header flex pipe won't crack like you are worried about. That's what I did

 

I agree with the DCRH being a great deal. I found mine in great shape for $100 and with just a SRI and the header I gained 22whp from stock, and trust me that's a noticeable gain. If only I had some tuning.

 

I liked my old DC raceheader before I sold it to go turbo. It was one of the best bang for the buck mods I had done when I will still NA. It was cheap and freed up more power than an exhaust ever would think of doing.

With a combination of only a DCRH, AEM CAI, enjo mounts, stock exhaust, stock wheels and tires & kpro only street tuned by myself I ran a 13.8 @ 102

I kinda miss that old setup. At least then I had traction, lol

 

anybody with power numbers on a strup?
