Alternative to DC headers?

So what options do we have for headers? Is there anything brewing in the rumor mills? DC sports really have us by the balls by being the only company making TSX headers. I think I'll wait for something better. If I-Mod's issue isn't resolved in a timely matter it will show me that DC sports' not standing behind their product and I wouldn't want to do business with a company like that.

DC is not the only header available. Comptech has one too for more money.

Your right, I forgot! But for the horsepower per dollar value they're worth forgetting.

I wouldn't mind paying more for more gain. But I definately will not pay more for a name.

if DC sports wont replace a new header for me (tat will sucks), and i cant get it fixed to it's original condition here, i might just have to go for Comptech, i know the HP gain is not that good for that money, owell...good fit, good quality, good service, blah...

sigh...the shitty header has been on my car for one day, now it's broken!!!

Any links or anything to the manufacturers? I don't mind spending if it is genuinlt going to make an improvement.
Is it just mugen that does them or some other japanese brand?

Don't know that Mugen has one, but you can call Kings and they will know. Phase, Feels has some out, but they are for the CL7...that is when parts between the Euro-R and the TSX might be different because of different size engines.
I am not a gear head...I just buy shit and have someone else install, so it would probably be better for someone else to step in to say if they would bolt-up the same, but I don't think they do.
