Comptech Headers or Prototype Racing Headers?

I am looking to install headers on my TL-S. The headers give the TL-S 30 HP gain...but 30 HP gain is max gain. Looking at the dyno for the 2000 CL-S on comptech's website...you won't get noticeable gain until vtec kicks in. Will you feel any difference below 4000RPM? Is it worth it?

I did a search for headers and i came across this. To me this design seems to be superior to the Comptech Design. It's a 3-2-1 design instead of comptechs 3-1-2-1 design. Each cylinder has a longer pipe length comptared to the comptechs. tell me what you think...the prices should be around the same.

These have been up before and they are AWESOME. However, if you are in Caliornia and want to pass smog, you better make sure the are legal.

I'd wait a bit.... guys over on the CL board are trying to work with Prototype to have a CL-S dynoed so we can see the gains on a "regular" car.

Once some dyno proof comes out (along with pricing), by then I think the decision will be made for you. If it's better... go Prototype, if not, stay with Comptech.....
