probably just another isolated incident.. it sucks but im sure they will warranty it for you.

But as for me, I always prefer to go with Japanese when it comes to parts for Japanese. Call me a JDM ***** or whatever but I just think that they have more years of experience w/ engineering, research, development and Q/A control on their products. I never have any issues w/ Greddy, HKS, Tanabe or Fujitsubo exhaust systems.

I've had their DP for 4 months with no problems. You may have had a bad batch or something. Call them to see if they would help you. And whoever said the manifold was bad..hello it's only $400 brand new!

Running their downpipe/cat delete for 2 years now, not a problem, great craftmanship as far as I'm concerned.
It must have been a single isolated case that I'm sure DC will replace if you give them a call.
