the ebay headers like the SS Autochrome are an improvement, but my suggestion would be either a Bisi header, or cams. The cams will be more cost effective, but you'll need a good header to make the most of them. The Bisi header is supposed to be the ish, if you can deal w/o AC that is. If I were you, I'd start w/ a decent header setup, at least get a DC. If you are low budget try to find a used DC header for an 89 Teg, and then find a used header for an 88-00 civic. I say this b/c the Teg upper portion mates to teh ZC head w/o port matching, but the collecor won't fit the oil pan, so you need the civic collector to fit properly. If you want Cams you'll need regrinds of stock cams. I have a set of DOHC ZC cams that I may be persuaded to sell for the right price. IM if interested. HTH

EDIT: sorry for the shameless attempt to sell parts

I can't say for sure on teh ZC, I asume so. I have one on my ZC b/c I had it on my A6 & I only received the upper 1/2 of the stock ZC manifold w/ my sawp, so my ZC has always had it. I did notice decent gains on the A6, but honestly I have no reference to other headers on either motor. Based on R&D & others reviews I would suggest saving more & finding a better header. If you really want that header, I'm sure that it will help a little.
