I didnt even know they made headers. If I were you I would probably stick with DC Sports. While were talking about exhaust manifolds, has anyone noticed the flanges on DC headers tend to rust fairly quickly. I know the flanges are not stainless steel, but wondered if Apex or any other exhaust manifold had stainless steel flanges. oh well......

I don't know about that... I think the first link you posted would make better headers then the second link posted ...

Remember... you get what you pay for.

Stay away from anything marked OBX, they are a pretty cheap company. If they are stainless, they'll probably outlast at least the Pacesetter systems... but that doesn't say much.

All the cheap brands are generally only good for little more then replacement of a cracked stock manifold, and I've only seen that happen on a DSM.
