DME header???

I saw this company, Design Motorsports Engineering,(DME - Design Motorsports Engineering). Does anyone have any info/reviews of thier products? They offer a stainless header for about $300 and it looks pretty nice.

Dme

I currently work at a performance shop in DME's area and they sent us a bunch of samples to examine and see if we were interested in selling. My first impression when looking at it was its nice finish and high quality welds. We have not really gotten around to installing any pieces so I can't comment on fitment, but based strictly on looks and general quality I could only assume that fitment would spot on.

Keep us updated if you end up installing one or talk to anyone with one on. I like my DC header but I didn't think the merge had the prettiest pipe cuts on the inside of the welds and I would like to upgrade to stainless anyway. Thanks.

Looks great. Nice and smooth flowing, even the collector is almost NOT THERE. Hahaah.
Did anyone check the site out? They make an axle-back, cat delete, torque dampener, and coilovers for the Fit. Everything looks top notch!

I sent them an Email. I want to be the test whore. Im sure they have one.

actually they arleady have a test whore. I emailed em a couple weeks ago in regards to their headers (since im local i can test em n stuff) but the best they could do was give me a $50 discount on the headers, too bad i bought the DC headers from 805fitsport a week before. it's cool tho. ima wait for their engine torque damper cuz i hear that's some good stuff.

Sooooo.....still nobody tried this header, huh... I am very interested in hearing a review, even though I emailed them about a month ago to ask for pipe diameters and never recieved a return email.

I offered to buy the header weeks/months ago. No response. If they dont want to sell it then they shouldnt advertise it.

Huh... That is strange and too bad, we're trying to introduce them to the Fit community and they don't seem to want any part of it. Again,too bad , their products look nice... huh... doesn't make much sense from a company profit view.

Just digging up some old posts...
Any news with DME? DC is my favourite header, but I would like a stainless version of it, and DME seems to be the one. I'm really curious to the diameter of the headers though.
