i have the dc header and didnt really feel much gain when i put it on. I took it off (factory defect) and noticed a fairly large size power loss by putting the stock one back on. It feels like the engine is being choked. I cant wait to get a cat back so i can put my new dc header on (this one has the welds for the plate.) This is a great piece. its nicely constructed and is 4-2-1. Makes a very nice increase in sound if you have an intake already.

Good to know about those welds if this happens to anybody that might buy them.

4-2-1 is better for midrange and 4-1 is for high

I'm selling a brand new DC Header still sealed in its box, pm me if your interested

4-2-1 all the way, I wonder if Borla was right about the longer tubes.

I am generalizing but the DC showed a peak of 10ft-lbs more along the power band compared to the HP on the dyno, sure its cheap and aside from the top end which may be 1-2 hp, it will loose every time to a DC header, torque has the HP header beat from the start. jmo:angel:
