Leaking Doug Thorley Headers. What to do?

29730 Views 194 Replies 41 Participants Last post by  JauntyBishop
I bought a set of stainless ceramic coated DT headers in April. I installed them and I thought everythig was ok. In May I bought the uprev and did the logs so i could get my first map tuned. It turned out It looked looked like I had a leak on the left bank, So I took it back apart figuring I had messed something up when I installed it. Once I had it apart I could see the leaks and it was pretty clear why.

So I called Nick at DT and told him what was going on and he said he wanted to get the header back so they could "fix" it. The problem with this is I live in Florida and its going to take 5 days for it to get to him, then they are going to have to fix it, then its 5 days back and I cant be without my truck for two to three weeks. So we agreed that they would get me a new one but they didnt have anymore so it would be about 5 weeks but he wanted me to call back after 2 weeks and see how things were going. I called again after 2 and a half weeks to check on things and Nick tiold me they were in welding and I should call again in a week and a half. So today I called and he tells me that he was wrong the that the headers being made now are the mild steel not the stainless and he still thinks I should send the one I have to him to have it fixed. I got really pissed because I paid alot for the headers and I just want them not to leak. I cant even get my e-tunes done because of the leak. Another problem is that it sounds like ****.
In his defense its only been 4 weeks so its not like its gone on longer then we agreed but today he didn't even give me a time frame for when I would get them.

I am asking you guys what you think I should do and am I wrong for being upset?

I'll take those pipes off your hands if they're catless. How much shipped to 73135?

Lol, everyone is down to feed my addiction!

I'm sure there is a lemon in every batch for just about every product. Myself-- I'm very happy with my PRT pipes and wouldn't mind picking up a set of catless ones to have on the shelf in case I wanna change it up.

Are you on the list for the HEADERS too buddy,,,,,,just Saying

If I had the coin, I wouldn't mind picking up a set once they are finished. All Cajun vs. PRT talk aside, what I've seen of them looks pretty sweet.

I'm assuming all is well with your DT's? You enjoying them? :D

There was a thread a while back... A dude said he was talking to Borla about creating a set of headers for us. Haven't heard anything in a while though. Maybe you should give them a call as well? :)
