Features

  • DC Sports Headers feature a precisely-engineered custom design for your specific year, make and model sport compact car
  • Exact header shaping from non-contact digitized scanning ensures a proper fit to factory positions and maximized power gains
  • DC Headers use CNC mandrel-bent tubing for precise shape and maximized exhaust flow
  • Available in 1 of 4 basic design styles for your sport compact car:
  • 4-2-1 two-piece header system: classic 4-2-1 design boosts power across the band with an emphasis on low and mid ranges. 2-piece feature allows for the easiest mounting
  • 3-1 header system: harnesses the power of DC Sports Headers in a two header system for V6 engines
  • 4-2-1 one-piece header system: outstanding power gains packed into a one-piece design that eliminates middle flange, lightening the unit considerably versus stock headers and increasing ground clearance
  • 4-1 header system: utilizes DC Sports' unique trapezoidal merge collector that virtually eliminates turbulence. Race-inspired shaping maximizes ground clearance and top-end power
  • Robotically MIG-welded for smooth seams and overall structural integrity

  • Brushed stainless finishes are available for certain vehicles
  • Polished finish DC headers are crafted from 304 stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance

  • Your DC Sports Headers carry a 1-year warranty

Description

For well more than a decade now, DC Sports has been the name synonymous with sport compact race performance. This reputation of speed and power began with their expertly-crafted headers, which DC Sports dyno-tests to ensure a performance gain unmatched on the market.

Great care is taken in crafting a DC header. All pipes are mandrel-bent to an exact shape for virtually unrestricted flow. Their 3/8" CNC machined flanges and O-rings ensure a factory-like fit that won't leak. And, the robotic MIG welding assures the durability of DC headers.

For the performance that best meets your driving needs, DC Sports Headers come in 4 header styles: 4-2-1 two-piece models for easier mounting, lighter 4-2-1 one-piece models, 3 into 1 models for V6 engines, and 4 into 1 race-inspired models boasting extreme top-end power.

Each DC Header is available in polished or brushed stainless or ceramic-coated mild steel finishes. And, your DC Sports Headers carry a 1-year warranty.

Notes

  • Vehicles operating with a nitrous oxide system run significantly hotter than non-nitrous cars, requiring a stainless steel header system instead of a ceramic mild steel finish.

Put these headers on my 03 tiburon gt and noticed a little power gain in top end. I have a megan racing cat-back and with these headers, it is raspy as hell. But sounds good. Worth the purchase just for the sound.

The downside about this header kit is that it does not include the exhaust manifold header gasket and also does not include the exhaust pipe flange between the flex pipe and catalyst converter. So, make sure you have those items before you install the dc sports headers.

If you're looking for headers, DC Sports is the way to go. You'll notice a slight difference in your acceleration, your car will jump faster. Plus, they look real nice.

I put the headers on my 97 eclipse GS along with a magnaflow highflow cat and muffler, and let me tell you... my car purrs. I did notice a nice power difference. The only thing about this is that it didn't come with a new manifold gasket and I had to buy else where.

The headers fit good and were delivered in a timely manner. The instructions were a little vague. Beware! AutoAnythings description of the headers left out one very important fact - these are race-only headers. This caused tremendous problems in modifications at the end.
