I have DC on my 98. It has the carb numbers on it but i've heard they were bought out by AEM so i don't know how hard it'll be to find them now.

GReddy and DC Sport would probably be your best bet, although you can look at Skunk 2 but i am not sure if they make one for ur model or year of car. One i would highly recomend for good low end power gain as well as HP is the Comptech. (Just about all Headers are street legal that you will find for a civic. Especially in California. <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0"> )

i was toolin around under the hood of the civ today. the cat is built onto the factory headers. an aftermarket header will not trip the o2 sensors??? thats cool. with the stang if you take the cats off you gotta use a mil eliminator to prevent the o2 sensors from indicatin a malfunction.

You drop the headers on, extend the o2 sensor to the new location and put a EX cat in or maybe a random tech catand your good to go. <edited><editID>ntxmotorsports</editID><editDate>38124.8693634259</editDate></edited>

If you want just an EX cat back, you'll need a test pipe (strtiaght pipe)to take the place of the EX cat or convert to an EX exhaust manifold &amp; cat.<edited><editID>ntxmotorsports</editID><editDate>38125.6760300926</editDate></edited>

if your car has 2 o2 sensors and ur header only has one bung in it you can always get an o2 simlutator for the 2nd o2
