Four equal-length primaries merge into two secondaries, then into a single collector, giving you a proper Integra midrange performance header instead of a heat-soaked lump of cast iron. The layout times exhaust pulses and reflected pressure waves to pick up torque where you actually drive—roughly 3,000–6,000 rpm—so the car pulls harder in gear, reacts quicker to throttle, and feels smoother everywhere in the midrange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nCompared to a 4-1 Integra larger diameter header that only chases peak power at the very top, this DC Sports 4-2-1 header focuses on usable torque and response. The 4-2-1 layout fills in the low and midrange instead of giving you a dead spot below VTEC. It’s a better match for a street-driven B-series that still sees canyon runs, highway pulls, and the occasional track day. The compact merge keeps everything tucked up nicely, so ground clearance stays close to stock and you’re not grinding the collector on every steep driveway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Acura Integra stainless header version uses corrosion-resistant 304 stainless with smooth transitions to keep flow clean and temps more manageable compared to the OEM manifold. You get a sharper exhaust note, better response, and an Integra performance exhaust header you won’t have to keep replacing because it rotted out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eOptional Ceramic Coating Finish\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nStep up to the DC Sports Integra ceramic header (SKU: AHC6006) if you want more aggressive heat control. The DC Sports ceramic coated header finish is rated to 1,200°F, so it keeps more heat inside the tubes, which helps exhaust gas velocity and keeps power repeatable on longer pulls and hot days. You’ll see a noticeable drop in under-hood temps—your intake, wiring, and hoses all live an easier life, and you’re less likely to heat-soak your intake charge in traffic or staging lanes. The coating holds up to repeated heat cycles and keeps the header looking clean instead of turning into a flaky, rusty mess. We run this same C.A.R.B. compliant Integra header on our own cars for exactly that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eEmissions \u0026amp; Compliance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis is a DC Sports 50 state compliant, C.A.R.B. compliant Integra header with an EO number, so you can stay legal and still get real gains.

The DC Sports TSX stainless steel header is a true 4-2-1, two-piece 04-08 TSX 4-2-1 header built specifically for the 2004–2008 Acura TSX. It uses equal-length T-409 stainless runners with a 1.7-inch inner diameter (DC Sports header 1.7 ID), so you're not stuck with the tiny factory passages. You get quicker throttle response, a stronger mid-range, and a smoother pull from 4,000 rpm to redline.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis TSX performance header bolts to the factory cat and stock exhaust—no cutting, welding, O2 extensions, or adapters. Just bolt it on. TSX header T-409 stainless construction with CNC-machined flanges (TSX header with CNC flanges) keeps the sealing surfaces flat so you’re not chasing annoying exhaust leaks 6 months later. For emissions, this DC Sports 50 state compliant header carries CARB EO D-370-14 for 2004–2007 TSX models, so it’s legal in all 50 states when you run it with the factory catalytic converter. It still fits 2008 cars, but you’ll want to double-check your local rules.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eOptional Ceramic Coated Finish\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nIf you’re fighting under-hood heat or you track the car, the DC Sports ceramic header option is worth a look. The ceramic coating is rated to 1,200°F and keeps more heat inside the runners, which helps maintain exhaust gas velocity and keeps power consistent when you’re doing back-to-back pulls or long sessions. This 2008 TSX high flow header setup pairs especially well with an intake and tune.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe coating also cuts down on radiant heat into your intake, wiring, hoses, and nearby paint. Compared to a bare TSX stainless steel header, the ceramic finish holds up better against corrosion and discoloration, especially if you daily the car in wet or winter conditions. If you want an Acura TSX header upgrade that doesn’t turn ugly after one salty winter, this is the one.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003ePart Numbers \u0026amp; Finish Options\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU: AHS6016\u003c\/strong\u003e — Stainless Steel Finish (DC Sports stainless header)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU: AHC6016\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ceramic Coated Finish (DC Sports ceramic header)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable Finishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel, Ceramic Coated\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy It Makes Sense for the TSX\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrue 4-2-1 equal-length Acura TSX exhaust header for better scavenging and stronger mid-range torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTSX mandrel bent header in T-409 stainless steel increases flow without killing low-end drivability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptional ceramic coating knocks down under-hood temps and improves long-term durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTIG-welded TSX stainless steel header construction helps resist cracking and corrosion over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRetains factory O2 sensor locations and catalytic converter for clean, straightforward install\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDC Sports TSX header carries CARB EO D-370-14 for 2004–2007 Acura TSX models\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2008 models as a 2008 TSX high flow header; verify local emissions requirements before you buy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWe run these same Acura TSX exhaust headers on our own cars, so the fitment and durability aren’t a mystery—they’re proven.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cspan style=\"background-color: var(--rz-editor-content-background-color); color: var(--bs-body-color); font-size: var(--bs-body-font-size); font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align);\"\u003e2004-2008 Acura TSX\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"TechnicalData\"\u003e\nPrimary Runner I.D- 1.7\"   \u003cdiv\u003eCollector I.D- 1.8\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eCARB Legal for 2004-2007 TSX Only\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"Included\"\u003e\n(1) TSX Header, Top and Bottom Sections\u003cdiv\u003e(2) O-Ring Gskets\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e(1) O2 Sensor Extended Wiring\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e(3) M\n\n10x1.25x20mm Bolts\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e(1) CARB Decal\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"InstallGuide\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/8905\/8893\/files\/AHC6016_29e5d0fb-2217-40e6-8b16-3e2f5f0acf3a.pdf?v=1594657372\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eInstall Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"DC Sports","offers":[{"title":"Stainless Steel","offer_id":44381587144738,"sku":"AHS6016","price":499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ceramic Coated","offer_id":40875900272674,"sku":"AHC6016","price":679.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/AHC6016_1_FINAL.jpg?v=1766016740"},{"product_id":"dc-sports-ceramic-coated-header-02-06-acura-rsx-type-s","title":"DC Sports Header for 02-06 Acura RSX Type-S","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50 State C.A.R.B.

The factory manifold's doing its job but it's holding you back. The runners aren't equal length. The diameter's too small. Exhaust is fighting backpressure instead of flowing clean. DC Sports makes a 4-1 ceramic coated shorty header that changes that completely. T-409 stainless with mandrel bent equal length runners. Large diameter primaries. A race-style CNC machined collector. It's a shorty design so it works with your factory catalytic converter. You're getting better scavenging. You're getting lower backpressure. You're getting stronger mid-range torque and more top-end power. The throttle response gets sharper. The VTEC crossover's cleaner. And the ceramic coating reduces under hood temperatures so everything stays cooler during hard driving or track days. Available in polished stainless or ceramic coated. The ceramic's worth the upgrade if you're pushing the car hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's What The Factory Manifold's Doing To Your K20A2\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe stock RSX manifold is cast iron and it's restrictive by design. It's not engineered for power. It's engineered to pass emissions and handle the K20A2's torque. The runners aren't equal length so exhaust from different cylinders gets to the collector at different times. That creates turbulence and backpressure. The engine's fighting to push exhaust out. You're losing power in the process. A proper header with equal length runners gets all the exhaust to the collector at the same time. Scavenging improves. The head breathes cleaner. The engine makes real power without working as hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCeramic Coated Or Polished Stainless - Pick What You Want\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou've got two finishes. The polished stainless looks clean in the engine bay and it fights corrosion. The ceramic coated header does all that and it adds thermal protection. Ceramic coating's rated to 1200°F and it's applied inside and out. The coating reduces radiant heat so the heat stays in the exhaust where it belongs instead of cooking your engine bay. You're sitting in summer traffic or you're on the track pushing the car and the engine bay gets brutally hot. Ceramic coating helps keep it down. The intake temps stay lower. The hoses and plastic bits around the engine don't get beat up as bad from radiant heat. We've seen people run ceramic on track cars because it makes a real difference in how much cooler things stay. Street driving. Polished stainless is fine. Track days or hard driving. Ceramic's worth the extra cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eShorty Header Design - Works With Your Factory Cat\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a shorty header which means it bolts directly to your factory catalytic converter. You're not replacing your cat. You're not cutting anything. You're not doing custom fabrication. The shorty design keeps everything compact and compatible with your OEM setup. This is huge because it means you're keeping CARB compliance while getting real performance gains. A lot of headers force you to choose between power and emissions. This one gives you both. Bolt it on, keep your factory cat, stay street legal in all 50 states, and get a real power bump. That's the sweet spot right there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eMandrel Bent And Built Right - Not Cheap Knockoffs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's T-409 stainless steel with thick 3\/8\" flanges and precision mandrel bent primaries. Mandrel bending means the pipe maintains its shape inside so exhaust flows smooth. No sharp bends creating turbulence. The CNC machined collector brings all four runners together cleanly. The welds are quality so you're not getting leaks or warping. You're bolting this on and it's staying on. You're not chasing exhaust ticks and leaks six months later. We've seen people buy cheap headers trying to save money and they start leaking at the welds. The flexi joints start cracking. The whole thing becomes a nightmare. Don't do that. The DC Sports header is built right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eReal Horsepower And Torque - Dyno Proven\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou're getting noticeable mid-range torque gains and top-end power. How much depends on what else you've done to the car. Stock K20A2 with this header. You're looking at 12-15 hp and solid torque improvement. Car's already got an intake and ECU tune. You're still gaining power but the exact numbers depend on what you've already done. Either way you're getting a sharper throttle response. The VTEC crossover feels cleaner because the manifold's not fighting backpressure anymore. The engine pulls harder. You feel the difference driving. We've seen people put this header on expecting magic and be disappointed because they thought it was going to add 40 hp. It doesn't work that way. A header by itself is solid. Pair it with an intake and a tune and now you're really moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCARB Legal - Run It Anywhere\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's CARB compliant under EO number D-370-14. You can run it in all 50 states. You're not going to fail smog. You're not going to get hassled at the dyno. You're buying a performance header that's actually legal. Because it's a shorty design that works with your factory catalytic converter you're keeping your emissions setup intact. The secondary O2 bung is in the factory location. The flange bolts up to your stock cat. Everything's compatible. You're doing a real upgrade that stays street legal and emissions friendly without sacrificing anything. We've seen people buy illegal headers and then they can't pass testing. Don't do that.

The stock exhaust manifold's restrictive by design. It's holding back the engine. You know there's power sitting there that you're not getting. DC Sports makes a 4-1 ceramic coated shorty header that fixes that. True equal length runners. Large diameter primaries. A smooth 2.5\" collector. Mandrel bent so exhaust flows clean. It's a shorty design so it bolts right to your factory catalytic converter. You're getting better scavenging. You're getting lower backpressure. You're getting stronger mid-range torque and real top-end power. The VTEC crossover's cleaner. The throttle response gets sharper.

It's not built for power. It's built to pass emissions and that's it. The runners aren't equal length. The diameter's too small. Exhaust from different cylinders gets to the collector at different times. That creates backpressure. The engine's fighting just to push the exhaust out. You're losing horsepower that could be going to the wheels. A proper header with equal length runners gets all the exhaust to the collector at the same time. Scavenging improves. The head breathes cleaner. The engine makes real power without working as hard.

You're looking at your engine bay and you know there's power sitting on the table that you're not getting because the stock manifold's holding you back. DC Sports makes a header that fixes that. The 4-1 equal length runner design gets exhaust out of the head faster and cleaner. You're getting horsepower. You're getting stronger midrange torque. You're getting a sharper throttle response across the whole rev range. This header's available in polished stainless steel or ceramic coated. The ceramic coating reduces under hood temperatures which helps keep things cooler during hard driving or summer traffic. You bolt it on, the Integra wakes up, and you're not turning your car into something annoying to drive every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's What The Factory Manifold's Doing Wrong\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory cast manifold on the B18B1 is restrictive. It's designed to pass emissions testing, not make power. The runners aren't equal length. The diameter's too small. Exhaust gets backed up in there. The head's building pressure fighting to push exhaust out. That backpressure kills power and efficiency. The engine's working harder just to get the exhaust out. You're losing horsepower that could be going to the wheels. A properly designed header with larger diameter equal length runners changes everything. Exhaust scavenging improves. The head breathes better. The engine makes more power without having to work as hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eStainless Or Ceramic Coated - Pick What You Want\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou've got two options. The polished stainless steel header looks clean in the engine bay and fights corrosion for years. The ceramic coated header does all that and it reduces under hood temperatures. Ceramic coating's thermal insulating so the heat stays in the exhaust where it belongs instead of radiating into the engine bay. You're running hard in summer traffic or you're on track and things are getting hot under there. Ceramic coating helps keep the temperature down. We've seen people run ceramic on cars they're pushing hard because it makes a real difference in how much cooler the engine bay stays. Choose based on what you're doing with the car. Street driving. Ceramic's nice but not necessary. Track days or hard driving. Ceramic's worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTIG Welded And Built Right\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's T304 stainless steel with mandrel bent runners. Every joint is hand TIG welded inside and out. That's not cheap and it's not quick but it's the right way to build a header. Mandrel bending means the pipe maintains its shape inside so exhaust flows smooth. No sharp bends that create turbulence and hot spots. Hand TIG welding means the welds are strong and consistent. You're not getting a header that's going to crack at the welds after a year of heat cycling. The CNC machined flange bolts up to your engine like it came from the factory. No weird brackets or custom fabrication. It's a direct bolt-on using your OEM components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eReal Power Gains - Not Fake Marketing Numbers\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou're getting a noticeable bump in horsepower and mid-range torque. How much depends on what else you've done to the car. Stock engine. You're gaining 8-12 hp. Car's already modified with intake and tune. You're still gaining power but the numbers vary. Either way you're getting stronger throttle response and a sharper feel. The exhaust note changes too. It sounds like an Integra should sound. We've seen people put this header on expecting magic and get disappointed because they thought it was going to add 30 hp. It doesn't work that way. A header by itself adds solid gains but it's not going to turn a stock B18B1 into something it's not. Pair it with an intake, a tune, and maybe some cam work and now you're talking real power. The header's the foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCARB Legal - You're Not Risking Anything\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's CARB compliant under EO number D-370-14.

The HHC5020 is a purpose-built header for one of Honda's most respected platforms - a car that rewards the right modifications with a very direct, mechanical response. The 4-2-1 layout was chosen specifically because the F-Series engine's high-revving nature benefits more from a collector that builds velocity across the mid-range than from a straight-piped 4-1 that only wakes up past 6,000 RPM.

No “one big number at 8,500 and nothing everywhere else” nonsense. You’ll feel sharper throttle response and stronger midrange from about 3,000 rpm to redline. Thick CNC‑machined flanges fight warping, and the TIG‑welded 304 stainless construction holds up to abuse and daily use. It also carries a C.A.R.B.

The coating is rated to 1,200°F and keeps more heat inside the tubes, which keeps exhaust gas velocity up and helps the engine stay consistent on back‑to‑back pulls or long track sessions. You’ll also see lower under‑hood temps—better for intake temps, wiring, and anything plastic near the manifold.

The DC Sports Civic Header for 1992-1995 Civic and 1996-2000 Civic EX (plus Honda Del Sol) frees up flow, adds usable power, and cleans up the engine bay. This DC Sports 4-2-1 Header Civic setup uses equal-length primaries and smooth mandrel bends to keep exhaust-gas velocity up, so you pick up torque down low and horsepower up top. You can run it as a Stainless Header (SKU: HHS5513) or step up to a Ceramics Header (SKU: HHC5513) if you want better heat control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Honda Civic 1.6L Header is built from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless, so you can daily the car in rain, snow, and road salt without the thing turning into a rust sculpture. The 4-2-1 layout and runner lengths work great for a street\/autocross car that needs midrange, not just a dyno number at 7,500 rpm. We run this same DC Sports Civic Header on our own D-series cars because it hits that balance between drivability and top-end pull.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCeramic Coated vs Stainless – Pick Your Poison\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth versions share the same flow path; the difference is heat control and appearance. The DC Sports Ceramic Header uses a high-temp ceramic coating rated to 1,200°F to hold more heat in the tubes. That helps exhaust move faster, keeps bay temps down, and stabilizes intake air temps on long pulls or hot days. If you’re road racing, tracking, or you live somewhere that cooks in summer, you’ll notice the difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe raw DC Sports Stainless Header still handles abuse and resists corrosion, it just won’t control radiant heat as well as the coated version. On the flip side, if you like the look of brushed stainless and don’t mind a bit more under-hood heat, stainless is the straightforward choice. Either way, you’re getting a legit 92-00 Civic Performance Header that’ll outlast the car if you don’t stuff it into a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Enthusiasts Run This DC Sports Civic Header\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-2-1 layout spreads power across the rev range – perfect for spirited street driving, canyon runs, and autocross.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTIG-welded inside and out for strength and crack resistance under repeated heat cycles and hard use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCNC-machined flanges for a proper OEM-like seal and clean fit on D-series 1.5L \u0026amp; 1.6L engines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrimaries measure 1.6\" with a 2.25\" collector – bigger than stock for flow, but not so huge that you kill midrange torque.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCeramic finish helps fight rust and road salt and keeps the header looking good instead of chalky and brown.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50-state C.A.R.B. certified (EO# D-370), so your 92-95 Civic Exhaust Header, 96-00 Civic EX Header, or Civic Del Sol Header stays legal at the smog station.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1992-1995 Civic DX • LX • EX • Si (D15 \/ D16)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1996-2000 Civic EX (D16Y8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1993-1997 Civic del Sol 1.5L \/ 1.6L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re refreshing a daily, building a budget track rat, or just want your D-series to actually respond when you put your foot down, this DC Sports Header 92-00 Civic setup does exactly that.

The stock cast iron exhaust manifold is restrictive. DC Sports makes a stainless steel 4-1 header for the K24 that flows way better than the factory manifold. The header's available in polished stainless steel or ceramic coated. The ceramic coating helps keep underhood temperatures down by reflecting heat instead of radiating it into the engine bay. The header uses larger diameter mandrel-bent runners so exhaust gases get out of the head without fighting tight bends and thick cast iron walls. You're getting quicker throttle response, stronger midrange pull, and the engine breathes better at high RPM. On a healthy K24, this header's one of the bolt-ons you actually feel, not just hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's Why the Stock Manifold Chokes the Engine\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory exhaust manifold on the K24 Accord is cast iron with tight bends and thick walls. Cast iron is heavy and it doesn't flow well. The runners are smaller diameter and the bends are sharp. Exhaust gases have to fight their way through all those restrictions. When the engine's making power, it's pumping a lot of exhaust. If the exhaust can't get out fast enough, it creates backpressure. Backpressure kills power and throttle response. The DC Sports header uses mandrel-bent tubing with smooth, gradual bends. The inside diameter stays constant through the bends instead of crimping down. Gases flow easier and the engine makes more power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eEqual Length 4-1 Design Helps Scavenging\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's a 4-1 equal length design. All four primary tubes are the same length and they merge into one collector. Equal length primaries help with exhaust scavenging. When one cylinder fires and sends exhaust down its tube, it creates a pressure wave. That wave helps pull exhaust out of the next cylinder when its exhaust valve opens. Equal length tubes mean the scavenging effect happens evenly across all four cylinders. You're getting smoother power delivery and the engine pulls stronger at higher RPM. The 4-1 collector merges all four tubes into one outlet. That design works well for street driving and keeps the power broad instead of peaky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003ePolished or Ceramic Coated Finish\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe header comes in two finishes. Polished stainless steel looks clean in the engine bay and shows off the quality of the welds. It doesn't do anything for heat, but it looks way better than rusty cast iron. Ceramic coating adds a heat barrier. The coating reflects exhaust heat instead of letting it radiate into the engine bay. That keeps underhood temperatures lower, which helps your intake temps stay down and keeps other components from heat soaking. If you're running a tight engine bay or you're worried about heat, the ceramic coated version's worth it. The coating also helps prevent corrosion and discoloration from heat cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eT304 Stainless Steel Construction\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe header's made from T304 stainless steel. That's corrosion-resistant stainless that handles heat cycling without rusting or cracking. Every joint's TIG welded inside and out. Welding the inside of the joint keeps the weld bead smooth so there's no turbulence disrupting flow. Welding both sides also makes the joints stronger and less likely to crack from heat cycles and vibration. The flanges are CNC machined so they're flat and seal properly against the head and the rest of the exhaust. A warped flange means you're chasing exhaust leaks. These flanges bolt up tight and seal right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e50 State Legal With CARB Approval\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header's CARB compliant with EO number D-370-14. That means it's legal in all 50 states including California. You're not failing emissions or getting ref'd for running an aftermarket header. If you're in a state with strict emissions testing, this header passes. You don't have to swap back to the stock manifold for inspection or worry about getting hassled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBolt-On Installation With Factory Hardware\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe header bolts to the factory locations.

Don't reuse the old one or you're leaking. Use new manifold studs or bolts if the old ones are rusty or damaged. Torque the header bolts evenly in a crisscross pattern to the factory spec. If you over-torque them, you can warp the flange. If you under-torque them, you're getting exhaust leaks. After the first few heat cycles, check the bolts and retorque if needed. Headers can settle slightly as they heat and cool. If you're keeping the rest of your exhaust stock, the header connects to the factory catalytic converter. Make sure that connection seals properly or you're getting exhaust leaks and potential CEL codes from the O2 sensors seeing unmetered air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cspan style=\"background-color: var(--rz-editor-content-background-color); color: var(--bs-body-color); font-size: var(--bs-body-font-size); font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align);\"\u003e2003-2007 Honda Accord EX\/LX (K24)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"TechnicalData\"\u003e\n   \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"Included\"\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"InstallGuide\"\u003e\n \n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/8905\/8893\/files\/HHS5022_7c0ab314-c94b-40e7-a82d-aa7052982a4c.pdf?v=1594657372\"\u003eInstall Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"DC Sports","offers":[{"title":"Polished","offer_id":45257846358050,"sku":"HHS5022","price":499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ceramic","offer_id":45257846423586,"sku":"HHC5022","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/HHS5022B_1.jpg?v=1764628421"},{"product_id":"dc-sports-k-swap-4-2-1-header","title":"DC Sports K Swap 4-2-1 Header for EG\/EK Civic\/DC Integra","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized Tri-Y 4-2-1 Design \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with K20 and K24 Swaps \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 92-00 Civic, 94-01 Integra, \u0026amp; Del Sol with EG\/DC Subframe \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with Hasport or Innovative Mounts \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits EG\/DC Subframes Only \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"active\" href=\"#Description\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"#VehicleFitment\"\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"#TechnicalData\"\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"#Included\"\u003eIncluded\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n\n\u003cli class=\"active\" id=\"Description\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDC Sports K Swap 4-2-1 Header - EG\/EK Civic \/ DC Integra\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLooking to drop a K-series into your EG or EK Civic or DC Integra and need a header that actually fits without custom fabrication? The stock manifold's not going anywhere and the K-swap headers out there either don't fit right or they're garbage. DC Sports engineered this header specifically for K swaps in these chassis. 4-2-1 equal length layout. 304 stainless throughout. CNC machined flanges that match the PRC Type R port shape perfect. Mandrel bent runners. TIG welded inside and out. You're getting better exhaust scavenging. You're getting lower backpressure. You're getting real power gains without all the installation headaches that normally come with K swaps. Available in polished stainless or ceramic coated. The ceramic coating reduces under hood temperatures so everything stays cooler during hard driving. Just bolt it on and route your exhaust. No custom work. No surprises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's Why Stock Manifolds Choke K Swaps\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou're bolting a K-series into an older Honda chassis and the stock manifold on that car was engineered for the original engine. The ports don't line up right. The tuning's wrong. The K-series is fighting backpressure the whole time. You're making less power than the motor's capable of because the manifold won't get out of its own way. A proper K-swap header with equal length runners fixes that. Both exhaust banks flow separate and merge clean. The tuning's right for the K-series firing order. Exhaust scavenging improves. The engine makes real power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCeramic Coated Or Polished Stainless - Pick What You Want\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou've got two finishes. The polished stainless looks clean and it fights corrosion. The ceramic coated header does all that and it adds thermal protection. Ceramic coating's rated to 1200°F and it's applied inside and out. The coating reduces radiant heat so the heat stays in the exhaust where it belongs instead of cooking your engine bay. You're cramming everything tight in an EG or EK or DC and the engine bay gets hot. Ceramic coating helps keep it down. The intake temps stay lower. The plastic bits around the engine don't get beat up as bad from radiant heat. We've seen people run ceramic on swap builds because it makes a real difference in how much cooler the bay stays. Street driving. Polished stainless is fine. Track days or summer heat. Ceramic's worth the extra cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt Right - Not Some Cheap Knockoff\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis header is full 304 stainless steel. The flange is CNC machined from a half inch plate and precision machined down to 3\/8 inch in the low stress areas to save weight without losing strength. Every weld is TIG welded inside and out for maximum strength. The primary runners are mandrel bent so they maintain shape and don't collapse. Each runner is flared to match the PRC Type R port shape exactly. The 2.5 inch outlet bolts to your exhaust clean. We've seen people buy cheap K-swap headers and they crack at the welds after a year of heat cycling. The runners collapse because they're not mandrel bent. The fitment's wrong so you're hammering subframes and running custom pipes. Don't do that. The DC Sports header is built solid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eEngineered For Real K Swap Fitment - No Custom Fabrication\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outlet's positioned where it won't hit your shifter or cables. The clearance works for lowered cars. The header comes with two O2 sensor bungs so you can run factory primary and secondary sensors or you can plug one and use it for a wideband at the dyno. A lot of cheap headers put the O2 sensor in a position that rubs the floorpan and that's a nightmare. This one's thought through. Everything's accounted for. The 2.5 inch flex bellow between the header and collector absorbs engine movement so the welds don't crack. You're not going to be chasing exhaust leaks six months later because everything moves around. Bolt it on. Route your exhaust. Done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eEqual Length Runners - Real Power Across The Board\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4-2-1 layout with equal length runners is engineered to match the K-series firing order. Cylinders 1-4 and 2-3 pair together. The spacing is consistent so exhaust from one cylinder reaches the next at the right time during overlap. Scavenging improves. You're getting better power across the entire rev range not just at redline. The runner sizing steps from 48mm up to 50.8mm then merges into 54mm secondaries. The transition into the 63.5mm collector is calculated so velocity stays high and flow is smooth. We've seen people put this header on a K-swap and immediately notice the difference.
