DC Sports Header thoughts/feedback
 

DC Sports Header is going for $525.99 on ft86sf and $504.95 on phastek. Seems like a nice price.

Description of header (video too): http://www.phasteksport.com/2013-Sci...der-ssr704.htm

How is this header? Anyone actually using it? Worth it or is there a better header for this price range?

They look good. Wonder how they sound though, I dont like raspy exhaust systems.

Dyno?

my guess would be 6-8whp

I'm gonna go with garbage. At that price, the quality suffered somewhere.

I've seen the prototype at their shop. It's sad that I couldn't hear the sound or to drive it to give pros & cons feedback :(

Probably so, but i still think i would buy this one before a borla :) I'm not buying either since i already have an FA20club and still waiting for something better to come along.

Is your car NA or FI?

You can't necessarily say that. Just because something is cheaper doesn't mean the quality is always worse.

I don't think he said that because it's cheaper. Even a vendor on the forum, who carries DC products, said that they are garbage.

DC sports has a pretty bad reputation.

What makes a header garbage vs not garbage?

Overall build quality? welding?
HP/TQ gains?
Reliability?
Material?
Conformity/placement?
All the above?

Material, reliability, fitment. Gains are a bonus once tuned, but I'm more worried about those first 3 categories over the gains. Typically a header that meets the first three, the gains will follow. This header also comes with 0 warranty, so it cracks, you're out $500 bucks.

Sure it's 304 SS, but the question is where is that supplied from?

If it doesn't come with a warranty I'd put my money on the borla. Least their customer service is tried and true. But like you I won't be buying one cause I have a rev works lol
