Default Choice of Header for LS integra

I'm trying to see which header to buy for my LS 95 integra.
Has anybody had any experience with the Megan 4-2-1 header, or a Greddy brand?

I want something very reliable, and not overpriced.
My price range is from 100-250.
Any suggestions?

I like DC but it's a little pricey. You can fine used ones for a good price.

Yes. I got a DC 4-2-1 one piece header slightly used for $100. It did take a couple months of waiting for the right deal to come along.

a 4-1 header will yield more noticeable power then a 4-2-1 anyday in my experience throughout the power band

OBX makes an ITR knockoff header that's 4-1. Reasonably priced too. Only issue i saw was ground clearance. May be worth looking into though.

your price range sucks it u want a good quailty header man...obx is crabby and DC sport is EH... you need a good quality header get Greddy.. cuz your price range... thats a decent header got my old one used for 200.

now if you make your price range better you can get itr header,Hytech,Comptech,SMSP, RSR..of course those would be all used... but they are great quality headers that you wouldnt ever replace..

there ya go pay $1,000.00 for a header that's gonna give him jack **** on an LS motor..

put some freakin boost to that motor

and don't waste your time with a header...the stock one is fine

your butt dyno will honestly realize nothing if you put a header on that car....

USDM 4-2-1 ITR header. 4-2-1 because it'll give the b18b the low to mid range power it needs. 4-1 headers are good for vtec engines because they utilize the higher rpms unlike the LS.

don't spend much on any header. Not many gains unless it is built.

exactly! just because it works for a VTEC motor doesnt mean it works for an LS.
