nah your good. actually obx isn not up to par. you want cheap and good get megan racing. its truely the only good gian header for the 2.3 h23 motors.

but if you are running an H22 head looking into Greddy. it bit more moeny but worth the gain.

remember you get what you pay for......also its Vtec not Vtech. before you get flamed by steve.

yeah man, i got you. but it is an h22 block and we bought the oil sprayers for the vtec conversion. in fact we have everything that we need for it. all in my barn. but im not sure that i can afford greddy. well i know i cant afford greddy headers. and yeah, you do get what you pay for but what do you think the power difference in the dc sports and the obx are?

nothing much if anything at all. the headers may break crack ect. thats why it pay to save and buy decent.

what to you mean h22 block? the header connects to the head? are you running H22a a1 or H23a1?

yeah like IA said you need to get the headers for the head not the block. i have DC's.. they are decent but theres as much of a gain from stock to DC as there is from DC to greddy. the greddys are that much better. if your doing the conversion save the extra 100 bucks or whatever it is and get the best header out there minus custom fab, which you'd rip the greddy design for anyways.

for DC vs. obx, DC all the way. everything ive seen from obx is crap.

megan headers im guessing what you mean? mugen are very expensive and i dunno if they have a h23 application. anywho, ive herd pretty much that, the megans are like the DCs however i dont have any experience with them so i cant tell you for sure. if your swapping for a vtec head, your gonna need h22's just FYI
