Default Buying Header today... HELP

My header is fubar, it is making my car sound like a Ford Tampon, time to buy new.

Question is...

Which?

I am looking at the Comptech 4-2-1, and the DC Sport 4-1.

Which would be better on my 94 GSR?

Anyone know of a reliable vendor to order from? I need the part ASAP!

Phil

I can see what I can do for you for the Comptech...the MIG is on backorder though I believe, so you may have to get the more $$$ TIG or find a place that has them on the shelf....I'll see what I can swing for you dood.

Well, Comptech over DC any day of the week.

I'd think if you've got a GSR, you'd be looking for a 4-1 for the top end power, but Comptech only makes a 4-2-1.

Nick, how much difference would there be on a GSR w/ a 4-2-1 as opposed to a 4-1?

Not too much when its the Comptech 4-2-1. Comptech is pretty competent when it comes to designing their products, and they were aiming for a 4-2-1 header that shys away from the classic "4-1 high end, 4-2-1 low-mid" thought.

The Comptech gives pretty good gains throughout the powerband in terms of what just a header would do for you, but this is also all relevant to your specific setup. It is definitely one of the better 4-2-1 headers on the market.

The difference between a DC 4-2-1 and DC 4-1 would be more apparent.
