Krzys Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Did the DC2 manifold change the exhaust note much for either of you running them?Seen a few on ebay going for decent £££! Also as Dave asked, does it line up with the cat alright?Lastly! Cams! Just cams or are you doing the valvetrain too? the exhaust is a quiet as oem now well chuft. i had to modify my cat to suit the manifold as 2.5" is miles bigger. you just cant beat honda researched parts that are developed for power. look at the power of this manifold compared to others..http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=3005484then ask yourself why not. i have had a ebay 4-1 manifold with 2.5" collector, was not this good.. and the the cams and springs only at this point. leaving the valves alone. stock rev limit.That's good to hear! My Cat-back is 2.5" (Well supposed to be ) so the DC2 header and either a sportscat or decat made to fit will finish off the system nicely!

weetec Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 have a read of thishttp://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=3005484and thisSame peak Horsepower figure yes. with the 98 the peak torque witch is 137lbft comes in at 6200rpm where as with the 96 the peak torque is only 133lbft an comes in right up at 7500rpm.Makes for a much more usable power band. Plus at the end of the day Torque = AccelerationPlus the 98spec is a full Stainless mani so its miles lighter than the cast 96spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I just read through that report i was shocked to see that the comparisons are so close to each other but really interesting read, i love realistic reports like this brings tuning back to the ground love the part which says when you buy a header make sure you buy the one suited to the work you have had done on the head not one some kids selling from his mums basement cracked me up!
