DC Sports Headers VS XS Headers

Hows it going guys?

Ive noticed a lot of members have been getting XS headers, i love the price of them, but ive never heard of them, dont know if they are a big company or what not, but ive heard of DC. The price of the DC headers are still pretty reasonable to me compared to Comptechs.
Since i already have a AEM intake i was thinkin about going with DC since they are the same company. Let me kno what you guys think. thanks in advance!

DC Sports Headers and why?

DC sports headers: cause its a name brand, although there have been some resonance issues, relatively cheap compared to comptechs, probably carb legal although I could be wrong.

Xs Power headers: cause they are cheap, exact copy of comptechs, stainless steel, dyno proven by members of this forum. I think there has only been one isue with a cracked weld, other then that just some fitment issue complaints and resonance complaints. However, I installed mine last Friday and didn't have any fitment issues and still haven't had any funky noises.

I guess it goes to preference. If you have the money go with the name brand, just like anything else. But if you don't really feel like spending over 400 on some headers when you can get the same effect for more than less the price, then go with the xspower headers. And buy yourself the unorthodox underdrive pulley, and get even more ponies for around the same price if not cheaper then the DC's.

But its totally up to you.
