Default Newbie Header Question?

So I know it's a newbie question, but what do you think of this header?
DC SS HEADER

Before I get Flamed:
Reasons I like it:
CARB LEGAL!!!!!!!! (I live in CALIFORNIA, everything is illegal here)
SS
PRICE$$
Weight (compared to stock)

THINGS MIGHT NOT LIKE
Not to sure on DC Quality (so many different opinions)
Not Much HP Gain (I will be happy if I Get 1HP Gain)


P.S. AP1

It is only good for weight reduction. It will not make any power and might actually loose peak HP.

CARB is its best point, but I would go with comptech if I were looking for a CARB legal header.

I was somewhat worried about CARB to, I would recomend the Mugen header, it is not CARB approved, but it comes with a heat sheild that covers the header (cops might not notice, but if you get reffed they WILL notice)

rick's seems to be the best choice since it performs as well as the mugen but costs 1/2 as much. dont go cheap and lose hp/tq. some of the stock stuff in your s2k right now is actually pretty good.
