i researched it. it doesn't because of the disposition of the 2nd and 3rd exhaust pipes. these pipes are closer together as opposed to the integra pipes being evenly placed.

Since we have another header thread, here's the awesome header dyno test:

I strongly doubt that your OEM cast header will rust through.

The walls on the casting are very thick compared to a tubular exhaust header. What you're dealing with is probably surface rust.

The main reason for replacing the OEM header is to improve exhaust scavenging to suit a naturally-aspirated tuning method. There is the incidental benefit that a tubular header weighs less than the OEM cast header as well... but power production is the top priority.

you get what you pay for and DC and pacesetter will get you nothing as far as a power gain. Not worth the money IMO. Save up and get something that will make power, don't just buy parts just to buy them.
