DC 4-2-1 Header & Lightweight Crank Pulley
 
So I have been wanting to know if getting the DC 4-2-1 header and possibly a lightweight crank pulley actually make any noticeable difference?

I want to know what I would be getting into before actually going forth with doing this. I am just unsure if it would actually be worth it or not, so I wanted to ask and see what others opinions were.

I installedthe header and Cai and it was definitely noticeable. The crank pulley is good to from what I read. I actually have my DC header and injen polished Cai for sale since I went turbo. Cheap!

Do you have a picture and price of this DC header I might know a guy that wants one?

Ooh really? How much were you looking for the header?

I've considered probably getting the DC header, still debating on the pulley though.

Looking for 175 shipped. As it was only installed for 1000 miles and only has 2 scratches you can't see when installed

If you get one, just make sure it is ceramic coated, as if not, the under hood temperature in the summer will cause a -10HP influx from heat soak..

Would it also be wise to wrap the header as well? I've heard it would be a good idea to do so.

Biggregg24 10-08-2015 10:51 PM

Yep. That's why I bought the ceramic

Biggregg24 10-08-2015 10:59 PM

I did just wrap myour turbo mani

I don't know on the Scion products, i know on the American Iron it's only a good idea if you only drive the car at a track, since metal when heated expands, and when headers are wrapped, it can't expand and causes it to crack.

Personally i wouldn't try it if the car is a daily driver, but all that being said, it does work.
