Default Best Hedder for d16Y8?

I have a 98 EX with just a cai and cat-back. I want to get a hedder that has good low-mid range power cuz it's a daily city driver. Any suggestions would help and where to get them.

You need a 4-2-1 header. I suggest getting some very inexpensive. I've known people spend $400 on DC Sports headers. I love my Ractive 4-2-1 Headers $165 shipped. You can get stainless or ceramic, after a while they'll started to have the burned look anyway. Trying to help you out cuz you from my hometown

CHIKARA headman hedders is what you'd might be looking for since it's something you'd want to use your car as a daily driver.

Bahh!!! Chikara=stock D16Y8!! If you get them, spend the extra cash for the good one. Trust me on this, the quality is just that much better. I would like to get the Airmass or Stillen for that engine, but hey, that's just me.

Why waste money on a header for a weak motor like a d16y8??? Exhaust/intake/cams/headers is all pretty much a waste on this motor. If you want go turbo. Even with all the money you spend N/A on a d16 a mom in a camry will be able to pull on you easy.

I have a D16y8, was turbo for the longest time and just went back to N/A. D16y8 is soo weak, my friend has the same car with a dc sport header, intake, tanabe exhaust and He can't even pull on me little bit.
