Megan Headers
I know these headers are really good for Hondas. Does anyone have these on their TL? Will the part listed on this site fit the TL-S engine or are they both the same when it comes to header placement fitting?

Yea, I saw the DC Sports as well, are those a better choice than the Megans? Will any of these headers give me a better sound off stock exhaust?

with the comptech and dc you guaranty a good fitment and good gaskets. your going to have to change the gaskets and bolts/ nuts that they give you with megans or xs

How long have you had your DC headers? how much did you pay when you bought them?

Gotta be careful with the Gen 1 2 bolt flange. A couple members had them crack at the welds

I have not been able to track down DC headers in the new design since they sold the company. I got cheap headers and they cracked on me. I say get comptech, if you can't afford new keep an eye out for a decent set of used ones.
