Default Which Header? DC or Comptech?

Hey guys..

I need to know which header to get.. and which is better quality.. Comptech 4-2-1 or a DC Sports 4-2-1 ??

I currently have a "Twin Loop" muffler, and will be getting a Random Technologies High Flow Cat and a JetECU.

Other than that, I will be on a stock '96 Integra LS motor.
And plan on Autocrossing my car most of the time anyhow.. no drag racing here.. so I am looking for as much torque as possible..

Skip the chipped ECU?
You honestly do not think that a JET Ecu will make any HP? Have you seen any problems with it?

Thanks for the "warning" about the ECU.. I went and bought an extra ECU just for this purpose (only cost $20), but the last thing that I would want is "no improvement" or worse a problem with the ECU. I should have done more research, but I honestly thought it would be a good investment.. So Thanks again, I can save the $299 and put it towards something else.

And it does look like Comptech is the way to go as far as headers..

If you want to electronically increase your horsepower, the best thing to do is get something like an APEX'i S-AFC and have it tuned on a dyno. Some chip that's already been programmed may or may not help, just because it hasn't been tuned for your car.
