dc headers
 

I own a evo IX and I was looking to buy the dc sport headers sold at JSC speed. Has anyone purchased these headers or know how well they work with the evo engine. I am worried they will kick a check engine light. If anyone has any info on this please reply.

RE: dc headers
 

I hate it when sites call them headers. Because the term header is usually associated with a NT car. And what a turbo car has is a turbo manifold, not a header. [sm=rant.gif]

Well, anyways why are you looking at manifolds. What else do you have done to your evo. Because there are plenty of other things you could be buying than a manifold to increase HP. Especially on that car. Also i dont know how much id trust the DC "headers" either.

RE: dc headers
 

Not only that, but the Evo is a 4 cylinder... making them 1 header not two.

Exhaust manifold ;)

RE: dc headers
 

Its called either a turbo manifold or an exhuast manifold

RE: dc headers
 

Doesnt that only refer to basicly, the stock ones? With like, the 3/4 inch runners that lead to a giant open 'manifold' rather than the 4->1 or 6->2->1 type?

RE: dc headers
 

huh??? I have no idea what you are trying to say. A turbo Manifold or exhuast manifold goes only from 4 pipes (usually equal length for equal flow) into one opening into the turbine housing. And the truely correct name for what he is looking at is called a Tubular Manifold

lol, tubular. I like that word... I want to use it more often in conversation.

haha, what are you a Ninja Turtle :D

RE: dc headers
 

lol, TMNT revival man! I cant believe they made another movie...

RE: dc headers
 

why don't you trust the dc exhaust manifold?Have you heard bad things about them?Will this exhaust manifold cause the check engine light to come on?Anyone

RE: dc headers
 

I believe Megan makes a decent header for that car, cheaper too, likely

RE: dc headers
 

no its not gonna give you a CEL. But like i said, it still doesnt seem like the best place to spend the money to get some more HP out of the car. Your really only gonna increase spool time a bit. Look at some of the write-ups in the evo section or ask some questions in there. Theres a couple of guys that can really help you out and let you know the best mods to start with. Because for alittle extra money you can have that car running 11's

RE: dc headers
 

the evo is a car not to mess with. only get the best parts for it such as all hks.
