Actually, they now make parts for different car makes. I've seen advertisements in magazines.

i still wanna know if anyone has them...

70297, RE: DC sport header? Posted by SILVERNT, Mar-09-04 03:34 PM
dc sports almost went out of business, and aem bought them out to make more $. thats my conclusion

70298, RE: DC sport header? Posted by Initial DSM, Mar-09-04 03:40 PM
Its true sir, DC does make a header for the 420a believe it or not; I've seen them elsewhere too.
Ajna, for god sakes dont get this; at least wait for AF/X to complete theres or get the fastfabrications one and get either one dyno'd for the rest of the community.

well thats why i wanna find out if its just a pretty stock manifold like the greddy...or if dc went and made a header thats gonna make some actual power...
if it does, for 240$, thats alot cheaper than 400$ from fast fab... and i heard alot of bad shit about af/x neon headers, and gary said it wont be out for a while anyway...
the long tube headers also bypass the stock cat, but i guess u could probably weld in a highflow in the "catback" piping, right?

yes, or just cut the piping 16 1/4, weld the flange on, and poof, cat fits.

70314, RE: DC sport header? Posted by ajna_star, Mar-09-04 04:51 PM
back to the topic... whos got this header?
|
70324, RE: DC sport header? Posted by Initial DSM, Mar-09-04 07:22 PM
uh nobody.
Ahg, save your peanuts, get a fast fab header and a ERT cat and call it a day imo. Talonspeed and someone else on this board will be dyno testing it soon anyway.
I've only heard good things about AF/X neon header? :shrug

70326, RE: DC sport header? Posted by silvereclipse30, Mar-09-04 10:16 PM
the only reason these would dyno any better is because its replacing the cat....if u put a cat convert back in then ur back in the same ball-park......

so, which is it? :scratch

70357, RE: DC sport header? Posted by ajna_star, Mar-10-04 10:31 AM
the fast fab / afx header is 'long tube'.... extending to the end of the stock cat..
the DC bolts right up to the stock cat
atleast thats my understanding

70361, RE: DC sport header? Posted by ez, Mar-10-04 11:14 AM
keep the stock header IMO. that little heat shield is perfectly level - nice place to put your socket set when working on stuff
