The DC because the so called JDM tunable is just some no name brand look alike for that price and DC is reputable (sp?) ... and no you dont need an intake.... just my opinion though

I would go with the DC Sports one, the other one is a less heard of brand and could be trouble down the road.

As far as the Intake goes, its not needed, but is always a nice addition to the whole I/H/E system, and helps the car breathe better.
If you want one, get either AEM, or an InJen Intake.

got wit neither one
the "DC" one is just a OBX b3 sold by massivemotorsports and it's not even a catback for the price their charging
the other one is just the rear section, but at a good price

for the DC one you might as well save a couple more dollas and get the B3 cat back on GroupBuyCenter.com. SSAUTOCHROME has them for $300 on there

and No you do not have to get a intake with the exhaust
you might want to do a search before you post a topic on which ones are best
personally i think they are all the same

good luck

Speedracer's right, those are just crappy knock-off brands, and they are just the muffler. Found them on E-Bay right? Don't buy either of them, thats way over priced. Just get a muffler for 100 bucks or so and get some custom piping and you'll have your loss of torque and loud noise.

Intakes are all the same, don't kid yourself into thinking that because it says AEM on it, it's better.
