Default DC Sports S2000 Header???

I was at www.nopi.com and I saw that they had a header from DC Sports for our car. They have a ceramic for $349 and a stainless steel for $436. I then went to www.dcsports.com and they have it there! Anyone knoe anything or heard anything about them? It looks like a good deal for the price...any opinions?
Thanks,
-Brandon

I've heard nothing but great reviews for all DC Sports products. I know they are working on a bunch of stuff for our S2K, but where are you getting those prices from. All the products they list for S2K are TBA. (as far as I can see). I think that means they are still in R&D.

says TBA on the price of the header. Interesting, if its under 500 might be worth it just to try out.

Well, I think I may try it out. $436 for stainless steel headers is definately not bad. I may give them a call and see if I can find some info out.

Keep in mind that we are subject to very high mark-ups due the S2000 being a low volume car, the import performance craze, and the fact we are willing to spend big dollars on this car. Does it have to be this way?

Take for example a Ford V8 that takes more material and fabrication for a set (yes both sides) of headers. A cheap set can be had for <$250, and good set for <$400, and a over the hill premium set for <$800.

So less than $32 to $100 per cylinder.. and I paid over $300 per cylinder for my Mugen.

I also see a Borla catback at a great price as far as S2K exhausts go. Anybody have anything to say about Borla?
