    Default dc headers

    what's the better setup dc header for an bone-stock b18c1, 4-2-1 or the 4-1? I am hearing several different reviews. Any input will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

    A DC Sports 4-1 header is more of a race/rally set up designed for peak top end power.
    4-2-1 (Tri-Y headers) set up is the best for daily driven cars.

    In your case (b18c1) i would go with a 4-1, increased rpms, reduced back pressure.

    Well, this is a daily driven car. So, if this is in fact true, then the 4-2-1 would be better. although, i would like a better rpm range. my car won't be race driven any time soon.

    It also depends on space you're working with...
    But @ the end, it's all ^ to you...

    X2......but then again, it's not just the header you need to focus on.....
