DC, considering Greddy doesn't make one for the H23. I bought mine at www.morepowerracing.com for $315 shipped.

Greddy does make a header for the H22, and judging from the quality of other Greddy products, I'd say it's a nice piece. The DC is alright, nothing special. Brendon2k got about 4 tenths of a second in the 1/4 mile from his header, I got about 2 tenths. With an Automatic, you probably won't get quite the same gains.

Is 2 tenths of a second worth 300 bucks? It's up to you. I didn't notice any sound difference, although, I can't hear much above the sound of my intake. Quite a few members say they can hear a differece though. They say the exhaust gets louder.

By the way, you will NOT feel any difference in acceleration just from driving the car.

I bought my dc header used and I think it was well worth the money. The installation had some tough bolts but I think it yeiled great performance gains for the price.

I have the Greddy headers, they are in my opinion better quality and I didn't measure it but the flanges look bigger than DC, but it isn't official. I never had DC so I can't compare, but like that dood who said Greddy makes good work, i agree. DC is the best bang for the buck tho, but if you want higher quality, go for Greddy, but yes they are only for H22's ...and only come in stainless steel. it looks dope, and it sounds dope too.
