rk does not bolt on at the cat , you gotta cut and weld

that goes with 95% of the headers out there

dc is a shorty header , and is a replacement for the stock manifold , very easy to install , no cutting or welding required


rk's is a bitch to install , and same with the other companies copies of it


get a pacesetter armor coated header

shorty headers is just that a short header

mostly it refers to being a direct replacement for the stock manifold

i was wondering this same question but like said up top is it worth buying a dc sports header i mean will i gain anything out of it. Sorry to thread jack but im about to get one and i was going to ask the same question as this thread.

Pacesetter ive heard some things about them not fitting right and i do want a 4:2:1 header and was either going to go with rk sport or dc sports???


Help us out please!!!!!


Oh and if i were to get a 2.2 eco sc which would be better out of the two or would i need to get something totally different?????

never heard of any problems with the pacesetter , or had any with the 1's ive installed

dc's is a nice header and did notice a gain on the g/fs cav , but using the stock down pipe with 1 7/8" tubing isnt the best now that her cav has the eco s/c on it , im putting the pacesetter on it

and the myths of a 4-2-1 being better over a 4-1 arent always true , biggest example rk's header has alot of unecessary bends , not the best for exhuast flow

pacesetters is a 4-1 with very minimal bends great for flow , also the better design for a s/c powered car
