1. KYB's would work fine with the H&R spings. If they are Race springs, you should definately be using an aftermarket strut.

2. The DC 4-2-1 ceramic header works great. Cheap, good power all through the rev band, and doesnt sit too low. The 4-1 is good for peak HP, but sits really low, I had it for 15 minutes then smashed it (Im using HR Race springs BTW). All other headers are too spendy, atleast for me.

I've got Kyb gr-2s on my civic, with Eiback pro-kits. They ride well, much better than when i had intrax springs over stock struts

I would have to agree completely, I have a dc sports 4-2-1 ceramic coated header too and it sits up high, I don't really have any problems with it rubbing.
I have seen the 4-1's and the collector sits too far down!
