Re: Headers

Selling point: My high compression d16a6 engine detonated and started a fire in my engine bay and the dc header held up just fine...

My set up is like this... dc header to catco hi-flow cat to 2" mid pipe to 2" resonator to curved pipe to rear passenger trailing arm to 2.25" extended pipe to driver side to fart can. I have to admit it looks ricey but it is surprisingly throaty. The car was a weekend car when I did the rice exhaust (with no resonator) and it was too damn loud and obnoxious. So I had the resonator welded in after the linkage before the bend. That was quite awhile ago and I just left it when I started commuting in the crx 400 miles a week. The only reason I never put a dynomax muffler in stock position is because I spent over 100 bucks for my stainless steel fart can way back in the day and couldn't justify going back to a $40 muffler. LOL I don't drive the car anymore though so I don't care...

BTW, I've heard 4-2-1 is better for low end torque but 4-1 is better for high end pulls.
