I think for as hard as it is to replace headers, you should walk away from no names..

Hope you like possible poor fitment and or blown out welds. Stick with good name headers because you DON"T want to do them twice.

make sure you get them welded so they are stronger or this will happen

That is what I thought, I just spent a shiny penny on the nismo exhaust so I might as well pay the piper on the rest of it. Thanks guys!

Those are NOT DC Sports headers. They're called "DC-S". The name is intentionally misleading because they're made in Taiwan knock-offs. Also, look at the guy's feedback... 12 negatives in the last month.

I guess I should more clear in the origional post.... I didn't have the Credit Card out getting ready to buy it.... Thanks for the look out though. I didn't see his feedback.

I just got the 350, you guys ever find any good deals on fleabay for the 350? I get great deals on parts and gear for my bike there.

No one who asks about a eBay mod ever buys it. No one. Waste of time.

Well I think most of us here mean well as far as looking for
a good deal but somethings are just too good to be true
especially when it comes down to parts for our cars you
should be pretty weary of what goes onto your motor. It's your
car though lol just be cautious.
