Default are headers worht it?

I have a 1995 integra ls and was wondering if i should get headers. If so which ones are the best? or are they all the same? I've been browsing ebay and found a few different brands from DC, Kamikaze, Pacesetter, Arospeed, and a bunch of generic ones. Also does getting chrome, ceramic coated, or stainless steel make much of a difference?
Thanks for any info!

i recommend the DC Sports Ceramic coated header. If you get stainless steel then it turns all stupid looking colors from the heat. I have a DC Sports ceramic coated header and it looks and performs great. i noticed a nice gain from it. Also the ceramic coating holds in heat better than any other.

it depends on your plans for the motor/car. if you FI then dont waste your money, if you want to have the header for a long time get a SS header. as far as prices go the best bang for your buck is the DC but there are many others that are better or as good as them, just do a search there are a bunch of threads about which header to get. good luck

well... a header is definatly worth it... but if you buy more than one header to make headerS it might not be worth your money as they wont be on your car.

I noticed a great gain of horsepower and I have the DC 4-2-1 Ceramics. Just be careful when you grab the ceramic headers. When you dont wipe the headers down before you install them, it leaves the mark where you grabbed it. Just a little heads up.

When life's not fast enough, downshift....
