New DC sports header 3-2-1
i got my headers installed..but i had to get my own o-rings and use the stock o-ring on the last end of the pipe connecting to the cat converter.... had to buy my own bolts too..i thought they came with bolts and o-rings?!
does anyone know the size of the o-ring needed for the dcsports? my seller from ebay got back to me and told me they contacted dc sports and they said it does not come with anything to install...and just use the stock parts?!

If you, did they come with 3 bolts flanges and down pipe or just 2 ps of headers?
I saw they accept the best offer was much lower than their origin price. My guessing is it was you or could be wrong.Thanks.

Look at the first question. You might need to call to verify this specific application.

Good in stock if you need one.
I installed the DC Sports on my 02 TL a couple months ago. The box actually had 2 rear headers in it. I didn't notice until I installed both of them and tried to mount up the J pipe. 
After chasing the vendor (Andysautosport) then the manufacturer around a bit..DC shipped me the correct front header and the install went off without a hitch.
I also did the APEXi catback and a test pipe at the same time. The car was pretty loud but the power increase was significant (seat of pants dyno).
After a couple weeks though I decided the raspiness and volume was a bit too much so I ordered a new OEM spec Cat and replaced the test pipe. Much better sound, maybe a tiny drop in power delivery.
I added a UR crank pulley shortly after which really improved off-idle response with the reduced rotating mass on the engine.

The headers are still worth it, even with a stock exhaust.
