Well im about to change over to buying an X-Force Cannon System. Then when i can ill be getting TODA Headers
Loud nice note.. With headers i'd say keep them stock until you can afford TODA, your better off doing it once and right man.
but what if we do not want to get TODA headers.? say buddy club headers for example. nearly as good but half the price..
would be nice if anyone with dyno sheets could post up so we can compare
How about these :

$950 for the header

Skunk2 Megapower Exhaust DC5 60mm $945
nice plug haha.. got any dyno sheets so we can compare?
I understand you may believe what you’re saying is true…
But I do this for a living & you’re wrong. (No offence intended)
Unless you only want to buy a header for the sake of it,
In which case, to save yourself disappointment you shouldn’t kid yourself that you're going to be as fast.
Regarding price, at today’s exchange rate $1675 vs $1450....
Rather than half, the difference is only $225...
Of course, if you could buy the BC headers for $840… That’d be a different story.
(Then it would only need to be ½ a good)
This is of course ignoring key areas such as lack of flex joint, incorrect bend at rear & poor floor clearance.
In any case, the idea of bang for bucks is to maximise the performance for dollar spent.
What would you prefer?
Spend $1450 & have the car go seemingly better than stock.
Or stretch the budget to $1675 for measurably better gain.
Back to the OP's question... If you're after bang for bucks...
Don't skimp on the header as most of the power gain in the exhaust is in the header.
The cat back, though still important is less critical.
Beware of some products on the market that look good but fail to deliver.
The 5-Zigen Pro Racer is an excellent example.
Hope that helps
Cheers

look mate wait off and get somthing that you wont decide to change later, this is your car, that you drive and enjoy!
do it once and do it right.
fullstop.
Adrian....what a champ! Hahah
Gah! $1675... very $$$$
but fact is fact, TODA seems to be better than Mugen
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...t=90255&page=3 <--> discussion here to back it up.
Regardless OP is looking for bang for buck headers not royalty headers.
Your never gonna have the fastest car on the street... and if TODA doesnt fit into your budget then quite simply don't waste your money.
Do your research, ask your mech so on so on.
umm ive heard hytech and SMSP (but im not sure if you have to import these) are good bang for buck.
... just found this but its old, like 2001 --> http://bob123e.tripod.com/thegreatheadertest/
I would be saving for TODA headers buddy.
i've got a HKS Hi-Power silent catback and toda headers for sale.
send me a pm if intrested
ok adrian i was just putting BC up for names sake. so basically toda is the only supplier we should use for a DC5?
