I think you're mistaken. Everyone who has seen the headers, and there were a lot who saw them preinstalled thought they were awesome looking. (build quality, not asthetic looks, and mind you these were used for 9 months before I bought them) Out of everything I've done to my car (AEM CAI/DC Header/Helix) nothing gave me a more noticible pull and power to the wheels than the header. Granted, I haven't been on a dyno so I don't really know what I'm pushing and how much the header actually gave me, but for the price I paid and the comments received I think it was WELL worth it. I'm hoping someone around here has an experience similar to mine.

He is right, you are wrong, the DC brand of header is somewhat generic, take off your DC header and put on a Toda or a Comptech header and feel the gains.

I did some research b4 pickin up my DC header. Everywhere I looked, people seemed to swear by the DC and beg off on the OBX and the Comptech. I didn't really see anything about Toda or GReddy.

I was lookin at DC sports's website and notice that the header for my car, 94 accord lx, it says it will fit all DX, LX, and SE models EXCEPT for ones with a 3 bolt flange. How do i know if i have that or not?
