the only headers i can find for my 03 civic lx are the kamikaze headers, i heard there pretty good but i just wanna find out how other people feel about them. i figured they would be i mean they're headers and all headers pretty much do the same thing right?

 

yes they make a decent header

 

larger than DCs. Much better than DCs. Quality not as good as DCs, but endurable. Not legaL in CA. You will need a new cat with the 2.5 collector.

 

Do a search for Kamikaze headers. Great for supercharged set ups, but for N/A, low power output, poor fitment, and known for cracking quite often, as well as leaking around the flange area. Due to the design of the Kamikaze, you'll be giving up power on the bottom end.

Larger does not mean better, especially for N/A applications. The large primarys can contribute to a loss of velocity, and low end grunt. DC quality far surpasses that of the Kamikaze.
