I have done this successfully with vBulletin (for my work).

what I did was...

1. create a new section in joomla called Forum.
2. create a new category called forum in the "Forum section" I made above.
3. Next I made sure that no content was shown on this forum page. You may need to go to "Module Manager" and go through some of these modules and set them NOT to show on the Forum page you made above.

This next part is the steps I did for vBulletin:

1. Added a php include for the page that I just made. Go to ACP -> Plugin Manager and double-check that the Plugin System is enabled
2. Click on Add New Plugin, then:
   1. Product: vBulletin
   2. Hook Location: global_start
   3. Title: whatever you want, I used "Header Include"
   4. Execution Order: 5
   5. Plugin PHP Code:
      

                      ob_start();
                         include('http://www.mysite.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=section&id=5&Itemid=60');
                         $includedphp = ob_get_contents();
                      ob_end_clean();

   6. Plugin is Active: Yes
   7. Save
3. Go to Style Manager -> Edit Templates -> header and add:
   

             #pathway, #whitebox, #footerspacer, #footer {
             display: none !important;
             }

   and replace anything between </head> & <!-- content table --> with $includedphp

Now my page displays with my dynamic header above my forum content!
