Lookin to buy a header... need some help

Hey guys,

I'm about to buy a header for me 98 EX. I'm curious to which kind and brand offers the best gain for my car, and I do plan on turbo'in it later if that has anything to do with it. Couple questions first:

1) Best brand and quality?
2) 4-2-1 2 Piece, 4-1 2 Piece, 4-1 One Piece?
3) How long does the polished look last?

Matching header to a Tanabe Super Racing Medallion.

Thanks!

id just save the money towards the turbo setup cuz its not worth it to buy something just to not be able to use it anymore in the future.

i realized that the header would be useless when I buy my turbo like five seconds after I asked, but I'm not planning on a turbo for a while as I'm debating over a rebuild of my motor to turbo or just swap in a B18. So for now the header will do, and any advice would help.

1 piece.

there are better headers than DC.....but they arent worth the cost unless you are going all out all motor build up since they are upwards of $1000.
