Using this DC Sports header is simple. First, make sure your car is turned off and cooled down. Then, just bolt it directly to your OEM equipment as it's designed to fit perfectly. During installation, take your time to ensure all bolts are tightened properly. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the header for any signs of damage or loose connections. You can clean the high - gloss polished finish with a mild stainless - steel cleaner to keep it looking great. If you notice any unusual noises or a decrease in performance, have it inspected by a professional.
