DC Sports TSX Stainless & Ceramic Headers for 04–08 Acura TSX
The DC Sports TSX stainless steel header is a true 4-2-1, two-piece 2008 TSX high flow header that actually wakes up your K24. Our TSX mandrel bent header uses equal-length T-409 stainless runners with a 1.7" ID (inner diameter) that step up from the factory size, clear out the exhaust choke points, and give you quicker throttle response, stronger mid-range, and pull that doesn’t nose over before redline.
This TSX stainless steel header is a direct bolt-on to the factory cat and exhaust — no O2 extensions, no cutting the factory pipe, no weird adapter gaskets. Precision CNC flanges keep everything flat so it seals the first time and stays that way. This DC Sports TSX header carries CARB EO# D-370-14 for 2004–2007 cars, so it’s a DC Sports 50 state compliant header for those model years. You get a real Acura TSX header upgrade that’s still street-legal where it counts.
Optional Ceramic Coating Finish
Want lower under-hood temps and more consistent power? Step up to the DC Sports ceramic header (SKU: AHC6016). The high-temp ceramic coating is rated to 1,200°F and keeps more heat inside the tubes instead of baking your engine bay. Hotter gas moves faster, so your engine breathes better and holds power run after run, especially on long pulls or track days.
The coating also cuts down radiant heat into your intake, hoses, wiring, and even your paint. It shrugs off heat cycles and stays cleaner longer than raw metal, so your TSX performance header doesn’t turn into a rusty eyesore. If you live where it rains, snows, or salts the roads, the DC Sports ceramic header finish is worth it.
