Im looking into getting some DC sport headers but im stuck between the ceramic or stainless? Whats the performance difference, sound difference, durability difference? I am looking to go FI eventually and am thinking of getting them jet hot coated anyway?

 

Save some cash an get ceramic.

Also check Strup headers

I bought a pair and I am nothing but happy with

 

if u r going to get them jet hot coated (good move) get the ss bc the ceramic coating would need to be removed before application. Guess what's under the ceramic coating? Mild steel; no good. Stainless steel>mild steel

 

I'd go for stainless + traditional header wrap or jethot. As many have stated, you only wanna do a header install once.

 

how long do you plan to keep the car? Do you drive it year round?

 

DC doesn't really make great power. I wonder how the Sturp headers do?

 

they do exactly the same as DC...they are copies of DC, designed by the same person (used to be at DC, left DC to start Strup)

 

im looking to drive it mostly year round and have it garaged for just few the bad winter months, and i decided on DC cause they are well priced and i have heard some decent reviews. i am going FI (nothing to serious while its my main car) but hoping to keep the car for about 4-5 years
