There has been flexpipe issues with the dc where its prone to cracking but the newer version has been reinforced. Not too many cases of the new version breaking at the same point yet. but only tme will tell.

In terms of performace, they are pretty much the same. Might be slight edge to comptech, but its very slight.

The dc header has been known to have a bit of a hissing noise.

The main problem with the comptech is with AT cars is that there's a rattle at idle in D. It has to do with that its a one-piece part and once the rubber support in the middle of the header starts to wear out/gets loose, the header is not tight and rattles.

I thought i had it fixed when I replaced my rubber hanger mount with a new one, but about 8 months later, it came back.

It has made me decide to get rid of the comptech header.
