Default GReddy or DC Sports?

I have the GReddy sp2 exhaust on my 2006 xa now, and i am looking to buy new header. Should i go with the GReddy header or the DC Sports header? I have heard poele with the dc sports but i havent heard many people say they have bought the Greddy header. Anyone with any experiance with either please let me know. Thanks

My personal opinion is that the Greddy is overpriced.

I would strongly consider getting a Strup, DC, or MMW.

I installed a MMW header on the wife's xB. It performs well, but to be honest, I wasn't 100% happy with how the inside of the header tubes were finished out. There was far too much slag and tube overlap for my taste.

I still think the header was worth the $200 shipped that I paid.

yea, the GReddy is almosgt $100 more than the dc sports. I hear good things about the dc sports so i may just go with that unless someone has any more info on the GReddy.

the DC Sports is definatly worth the money, and because of the ceramic coating, the finish wont discolor. ive had mine on for about 2 or 3 months, and still looks like it did the day i bought it. Probably one of the best mods ive done so far.

i hate how the header is in the back, so you cant really see the nice finishes. the DC looks nice since its ceramic, but you cant see how nice it looks. same with the strup, which is polished

i have the DC sports, it helped smooth out the powerband, looks great, and helps keep under hood temps down. ill be supercharging my box in a month when i go home on leave and the benifits will be even better, definitly worth the money.

I realllly want to see someone run the greddy in there egg. When you look at price, you have to keep in mind your paying for a Greddy product, which arent exactly cheap. I think it would be awsome if you run with it ;)

I am considering the Greddy on my Box especially since I already have the EVO2. I am concerned with the fact that I have a 5Spd, I have heard that some headers are not good without an auto due to cables or something. I am also worried about the CARB leagalness of it since I am in Cali. Anyone have any info for the Manual Box with header (especially Greddy). Thank you in advance.
