Rep Power: 0 SixSigmaRacing Header for the RSX/DC5
I had read around here that any header for the RSX would fit a K20-EM2 swap... People suggestin Comptech, SSR, Buddy Club, etc. Ended up choosing the SSR header for the performance gains and quality.
Then I come to hear that it doesn't work with the front sway bar? Is this one of those, I need a DC5R front sway... Or will the header simply not fit?

what Progress sway? RSX or EM2?
I have heard several times you can run any header with a hotchiks front sway.

my stock ex would have fit but the k24 was too high, didn't have a front sway for a while because every one said it would hit.
when i put my k20 in, i put my progress front in. works fine...

Yes, I will be running Si axles/sub frame. I was under the impression that you did not need the JDM front LCAs to run the JDM front sway...

SSR makes the headers for the K20 swaps and it will fit with the EM2 Sway from what i have read, the BC is the only other comparable header for the cost

Old thread, but.....I need to know if anyone is running the STRUP RH, and if so, with what front sway bar?? BTW, I am getting the STRUP RH for a good deal, so Im not interested about which RH is best, just which sway bar will clear a STRUP RH.....and from what I have heard, the STRUP and DCRH are very similar, so let me know what sways (brand and DC5/DC5R/EM2) you are running with the DCRH as well.....THANKS!!!

Well, I will be recieving my Toda RH and Toda sway bar soon.....I hope this fits correctly. Luckily from what people are saying here, the Today sway clears most of these headers, and hopefully that includes their own on this application. New custom catback on the way as well!!

RAZRBLD....could you take any pics of where the header connects to the custom piping? I am trying to figure out if I can fit a small hi flow cat in their as a removal piece to swap in a test pipe section when I need to. Its hard to predict what kind of room I will have, but with your piping it would help a lot to see better pictures of the how the header back piping will connect. Thanks.

OK, thanks Phil....Ive alredy ordered my RH, resonator and muffler...but am trying to fit a removable cat in there somewhere after the RH....the RSX guys are doing it, but I need to see what kind of room Im working with here before I try to piece that together. Im interested in the clearance area on the underbody of the car where the RH and exhaust meet, and the area before the resonator. Thanks!
