Default DC Header problems

Hi all, the following pertains to my 1999 Honda Accord 2dr

PO or earlier installed an F22B motor and from what it looks like left the stock accord exhaust from the cat back - i'm not sure if the headers made for the F22B and the stock F23A1 engine are identical, but it appears that the system is a 4-2-1 system, and where the headers meet the stock exhaust looks like some really crap weld job

Either way the piece with the wire mesh and flex pipe snapped from the header pipe and was dragging on the ground (hanger was missing) and now i need to repair it - I took it to a guy who welded it the best he could and what he couldnt get up top we used an exhaust bandage which only cured the problem for about a week

I'm trying to figure out if DC makes a piece that will connect from whatever headers I have now to match up to my stock exhaust, any help is appreciated

Default Re: DC Header problems

So let me get some clarification: You're in need of a new lower piece (or downpipe you could say) of a DC header, or do you need a piece that connects from the lower piece to your exhaust/catalytic converter?

If you just need a lower piece, you need to probably contact DC to see if you can buy one individually (No idea what it would cost or if it would be worth it). If you are having trouble connecting your header to the rest of the exhaust, you need to go talk to an exhaust shop. They shouldn't have much of a problem.
