if there ANY difference, besides about 200 dollars and the label?

lastly,
Stainless Steel or Ceramics for Headers?
Ceramic right? to keep heat off?

I've got an AEM short ram and I love it, and my WS II is on a UPS truck right now. The DC header is also supposed to be second only to comptech and high priced headers like toda. I'd propably have that ordered too if I wasn't considering boost. As for stainless or ceramic for your header, I've heard a few people who perfer ceramic, but it's obvious that most like the SS for not only looks, but durability. The DC ceramic header is made with mild steel and then the ceramic coating, but I've heard that may start flaking off after a year and you'll want to recoat it before it rusts. Also, I've heard of a few hairlines and stuff in the ceramic. As a general rule of thumb, the more you pay the better that part will be. Companies like DC and AEM do R&D before putting their products out. Other companies just try to copy them. Plus, you'll notice the welds and parts get alot better with price. I've heard some horror stories about the obx headers. Anyway, good luck on your choice.

I've heard lots of bad things about OBX and header buzz.

I've had an AEM SRI for nearly 5 years now. Best modification I've done. I don't have to worry about hydrolock and the washable filter is a huge money saver.

Ceramic may rust after a few years.

Hey, this is one of the stories I was referring to. It's better to do it right the first time than to have to go through all that.

Ceramic does keep your engine bay cooler and it won't rust anytime soon unless it gets cracked, scratched, or chipped. Of course, you can always do S.S. and just heat wrap it.

OBX is cheap stuff from everything I've heard. DC Sports is the way to go for Hondas. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.
