xforce headers for dc5r

[franki]

what are the xforce headers like for the dc5r, i searhced and was unsucceful. has anybody got it. and how much were they. :honda:

[57UDD]

I dunno anyone that has had x-force headers on a dc5r, but i'm thinkin many ppl would say 'u get wat u pay for'. u'd prob be better off spending a bit more money on a better set dude. and i think x-force headers are goin for around 450-500 i think.

Yeah check out the Traders section.

Egsi is selling them for $450 shipped.

As for my opinion on the headers, they are bang for buck for those on a low budget.

quality X 3 lol...and no one can take away the bling factor....toda headers + toda full catback....looks amazing! but doesn't sound that good

does the xforce sound good, whats the difference in gains whether i have toda or xforce headers with 2.5" catback :honda:

[BLKCRX]

The difference b/w toda n xforce is in those links I posted ;)
Are the toda headers worth it.. hmm yes

Iv tuned 30+ toda header dc5's and around the same x froce headers, 10 mugen headers and a hand full of other jap / custom headers, and toda out performs each and every time.
I would rather tune a stock dc5 header if i was't going to use Toda.
Then again inside info from a magical person in Syd, told me the X force header design might change soon to improve it closer to toda performance.. but this is still on the drawing boards.

As for comparing $ value for price per kw gain.. if you want value for money save and go Turbo !
Making lots of power out of NA will always cost money, and big money…. To make 10kw gain might cost 100$, but to make 11kw will cost $1000 ( as a example) yet many people spend the $1000 extra just for the one kw extra.

im in a similar situation to you franki....after much consideration...i rather stick to stockies for now than to go with xforce...the xforce ones just doesn't feel right :)

[BLKCRX]

Tune your Stock headers ;-) there's plenty of power there to be gained !!! more power than untuned x force headers.

[franki]

thanks guys, nah il just save and get some toda headers :honda:

[JINRAI]

and then tune it...hahah :thumbsup:

[BLKCRX]

Yeah... tuned toda headers make a very nice upgrade ;) thus why iv personally done so many car's with em on ;)

[FANATK]

[BLKCRX]

Heres the difference tuning the stock head .. untuned vs tuned.
