Dc header...flex pipe?
 
Hey guys, i picked up a used DC 4-1 header for my 95 ls, and i noticed that it has a flexpipe attached to it, but i am unsure if it comes thiss way from dc or if it was put on afterwords. I am curious because the header was origianlly on an LS but was then put on a GSR, although he had his midpipe adjusted to fit the header and he said that the flexpipe was already on the header, i just havent had a chance to look under the car yet to see if its going to line up, so im curious if DC headers come with the flexpipe from the factory

No

94-99 gsr have different length mid-pipes

So why would the flexpipe be on then?

94-99 gsr's have a slightly longer exhaust, by 4"

IF GSRS have a longer exhuast, wouldnt that cause for the header to be too big meaning the midpipe would need to be shortned, not add a flexpipe? Because from what he said thats what he did(shorten his midpipe) but now im confused if he shortened his midpipe to accomidate it being too long, why is a flexpipe there

those questions you'd have to ask him. The only reason I see for having a flex pipe there is so that as a extra precaution, there's less chance of the header bolts breaking when hooked up to the cat
