DC SPORTS CERAMIC HEADER
I am thinking on getting the DC Sports Ceramic Header. Does anyone have any complaints on it? What is so good about it?

The HP setup seemed good at first, but there were problems with installation reported by a couple of members. Even though the DC header is just a top section, it's a simple bolt on and is street legal.

Check this thread out dude, I installed them on my buddy's 2k1 last week. Good mod, go for it if you already have intake and exhaust work done. The HP header is kinda iffy.

I have the DC Ceramic header....and I like it, and to be honest, I could tell it was there when I got it put on
by sound and I could feel it a little. With the AEM intake, it seemed to get the car to move a little quicker
in the higher RPMs. I will eventually get a header that replaces the cat, but only after my warranty has expired.
I like the DC though...looks nice and I could tell a small but noticable power gain !!

I love my DC, I had a HP header on my old ride and the fit and finish on it was very iffy, had to build my own mount for it down below. Might give you more power, but I like quality, fit, and finish over a few extra horses (if that). Peace

Looking at one on Groupbuycenter.com and the guy is saying it is a 4-2-1 ceramic header. Isn't the only one available a 4-1 ceramic?

I like my DC. I've have it for over a year and half. I drive 100 miles a day total to work. No problems with it.
