Default DME headers vs. DC Sports headers

I am interested in both of these headers but I'm not sure which ones to get. Anyone out there know which one is better for performance. If I'm not mistaken they're both 4-1.

Default TC Headers

Well I have Weapon R's header that is 4 -2 -1 and comes with s-pipe. check it out at hotupracing.com If you get a header that is 4 -1 it will be really wrasspy.

We have 2 in stock right now, I have been running the DME header for about 2 months with no problems at all, I used to have the Megan Header and the difference was day and night , this is a beautiful/solid header and thats why I'm carrying them now, I only sell things that I stand behind of. If anybody is interested the price is $295 +tax(if you live in CA) and shipping will be somewhere between $15-20 dollars(I'm not in the shop right now so i can't quote anybody exact prices right now. We also have 2 DME engine dampeners($155) and 1 diversion panel in stock($65), so if anybody is interested, please let me know, thank you.

No it will not melt your engine cover, yes it fits with the SC and no the heat shield will not work on it, you'll have to have one custom made like I did on mine, hope that helps you.

Yes the anti fouler trick will work on the DME header, this is the one I recommend you get, it always works no matter what header it is:

You can try to make one yourself from one of those DIY, but those have a 50/50 success rate, so you might go through a few before you get it right, the one I'm telling you so far has 100% success rate, you don't have a Paypal account? if you do just pm the guy and ask him for his Paypal email, that way you can send him the money, or maybe you can mail him a cashier's check, but that's between you guys, hope that helps, thank you.

Yes same design, I'm glad you posted that cause I've always been curious how the Tanabe Medalion Touring exhaust would sound like with an aftermarket header, I'm installing a DME header on a customer car soon that has The full Megan mid section and a Medalion Touring exhaust, I'm very curious on how that's going to sound.
