From what I have heard the DC header is not that much bigger than stock. I would go with the Kamikaze depending on emission laws, they dont check here so I went with Kamikaze.

I have a DC header and it is bigger, plus check the bore in the DC, you'll see a huge difference.
Add a high flow downpipe, a racing cat, a DC TCS cat back with a CAI and you're off to the races.

I went with DC shorty header because of emissions but its a great header and i noticed a power gain right away but once i had me exhaust and AEM CAI on at the same time i really noticed a difference in power and torque.

It's not about just piping diameter, but how efficiently the gasses are removed from the cylinders (like how 3"+ piping is ridiculous for our cars without a turbo!). THe DC header is definitly well designed. THe HP racing scores over it, as it doesn't have to comply w/ emmisions (i.e. they can have a full length header & relocate the cat) Let's see someone come out w/ a shorty header that makes more than the DC, w/ the same cost & quality!!

2k1RiCeBuRnEr, i think you should be able to use the header designed for the EX, cause we do have the same blocks. You may want to do a visual inspection, just to confirm. Also the install for the HP Racing header is more involved..

IF getting just the top...go with DC...though it really doesn't come into play until about 4,100rpms
