DC-Sports Headers

http://www.dcsports.com/4into1headersmitsubishi.html

Dont expect magic, but with a 4-1 system u are looking at high gain at the top end with torque gain midrange. If u compare it to RPW's it should be pretty similar.

Wait until you are done adding all the bolt-ons you plan on adding before tuning.

I Know this is a pretty old post but I was wondering if anyone has tried these headers out. It says they're only one piece instead of the RRM and OBX (which I can't find anywhere) which are both 2 pieces so I was wondering if everything bolted up correctly or if there were any issues? I'd really appreciate any info thanks

^No experience with this exact part. So wait for someone else to chime in. I can say that I've installed plenty of DC parts in the past, and all were great fit/quality IMO (most will agree).

Nice! I love the way my Borla sounds but I considered going with one of their cat back systems before I installed it. I did some more research on the DC Sports 4-1 headers and the reason they're only one piece is they cut out the middle piece of pipe where the spring bolts normally go and bolt straight up by the cat which I'm considering removing and installing a test pipe anyways so if it's not a perfect fit it won't be a big deal it'll just give me more of an excuse to install the test pipe sooner lol
