If you uploaded a picture of the header it would be useful! Do you run the stock intake manifold? After installing my dc-4-1 header with the stock intake manifold the performance was poor.When i put on the edelbrock everything ran smooth. What about your exhaust tubes? Diameter?

Other brands, or unbranded manifolds, tend to crack on the solders near exhaust flange, so, I didn't take any risks and bought these.

Raimundo i ask JapSpeed and they want 40 Pounds for sending the manifold plus 150 for the manifold itself... That is over 200€. Yours was cheaper? Cheers

something about other brands, the header 4-2-1 of megan racing, it that thing worth buying?

i've heard the are manufactured in the same factory as DC-sports?

or is this a brand like pay a lot for the name not the quality?

Law, sorry for the delay. Did Henrique told you how much the EM cost?

Search in ebay.co.uk for Japspeed d16, seller is 2fast2cool2, 99£ the EM, plus 34£ for shipping.

Btw the EM is ok until now, had a small problem on the middle flange, where the two parts merge together, blown a couple of gaskets. It was machined, soldered, and now is behaving ok 8-)

In the "Low Budget Header" category, Megan Racing is the best bang for the buck
