I'm making of list of what headers will work on the 88-91 Civic/CRX Si. So far I have:

--DC Sports SS and CC 4-2-1
--OBX-R CC
--Generic ones on ebay

Who else makes a header for this car? Will the 92-95 Comptech header fit or the 92-95 greddy header work? I know the o2 bung is a little different, but that's not a problem as the wire can be lengthened. Theoritically, any 92-95 Civic Dx header should work and not have any clearance problems, correct? I just want to stay away from something that makes contact with the radiator or hangs below the oil pan. It seesm that headers for this car aren't that plentiful for some reason.

 

there are plenty of other choices......... kamikaze, jg edelbrock, im pretty sure skunk2 also makes a header that will fit d series but i could be wrong............ uhhmm there are also custom headers that can be bought........ i believe a company called headertech, and http://www.an-r.com .......... good luck

 

check out http://www.exospeed.com they sell race header's

 

I've got a cheap one off of ebay.

Best mod I've done to my car.

 

Airmass Header(Comp blu)4-2-1. I used to have one and i like it.

 

Anyone have good places to buy say a DC header for cheap?

 

Landspeed racing's D-header is nice, and dyno's better numbers than the DC Sports!

 

Chikara header is a nice mod, for around $120 its a good gain!

 

dont buy ebay headers.. The build quality is beyond pathetic! Dont ask me how I know!!!

But DC or some name brand.. not some ******* making crappy parts!

 

I got a Ceramic DC 4-2-1 header and i love it. Bottom end improved a lot and the pull from 4k up is amazing.

 

yeah my choices on Dseires headers are going to be in this order as in performance:

1)Exospeed...Bisi header
2) AN-R headers.... same builder as Bisi header but different designe
3) LandSpeed Racing power headers !!! really good gains & dyno proven
4) greddy
5) DC 4-1
6) DC 4-2-1
7) everything esle is about the same.

Just my thoughs though

are you saying that the header that Exospeed sells is the same header that Bisi helped design?

 

One of my friends is selling his Gude header. He loved that thing and got great hp gains.

 

 

Dude, if you're putting that on your D16, then you better have some serious internal mods. Super high compression, NICE cam and valvetrain, ported out head and I/M and a proper ECU to control it all. Otherwise, you'll gain 1-2HP over the DC 4-2-1 on a stock A6... But keep in mind the DC 4-2-1 header is a very nice design, it's very evenly proportioned to provide equal HP/Torque gains throughout the entire powerband. 4-1 Design headers aren't all that they're cracked up to be, unless your motor is willing to rev and breath freely past 8k rpms (ahem, did someone say B-series?)

 

Maybe I should mention that the header is going on a motor with just external bolt-ons and no internal work. But, I did ask for all D-series headers so this information is good to know.

So does anyone have any experience with the Greddy D-Series header? I don't believe I've seen anyone running it.

 

If anyone's looking for a dc sports, i'm wheelin and dealin in my sig!

 

I think I read somewhere that the Greddy and DC Sports headers are almost identicle...

But yeah, it's amazing to see how many aftermarket headers are available for the d-series! Why drop in a heavy B-series motor when the D still has plenty of potential?

 

The point is those AN-R's make considerable power even on a stock motor and as I build it up to completion I will never have to change them

 

Does anyone know how well the AN-Rs perform on a supercharged motro??

 

Would you guys say that ceramic coated is better than stainless? I just now noticed that there is a big price difference between the two!

 

New Holley Airmass Pro Step.

Looks promissing.

I guess.

 

How much power are we talking about here when just bolting on a header on a car with i/e ?

Wonder how that performs. If it makes good power, i might get that and sell my DC. It looks like they made it a 4-1 without sacraficing ground clearence.
