That worries me if the Cat failed and yet you put it under zero adverse conditions. But then again, many people are running them with happy with no problems. It's possible you got a bad Cat in general, or perhaps your cat was dropped before weld assembly of the rest of the tubing

The tC2 is the only one that needs that mod. TC1 fits fine with the OE gasket.

I'm not quite sure what caused it, but when I noticed the CEL and the unbearable rasp I was starting to hear from the car I took the cat off and it was completely gutted. I emailed Dezod and they said they couldn't do anything for me seeing as I didn't have the warranty card for the cat anymore :\. After a couple more emails I stopped hearing from them so I just said whatever and now it's sitting in my garage.
Here is a picture of what greeted me when I took off my header. Sure did explain the rasp and CEL

Alright guys I finally did it! NO LEAKS!
I went to an advanced auto and got a massive donut gasket for about $10, the opening itself is big enough to fit the stock tc donut gasket in haha.
The part number for the gasket is #31531, they may have one a bit smaller but idk this is what I got.
Because of the gaskets size the original spring bolts would not fit so I had to make up my own "spring bolts" by using some hardware laying around my garage and from the local home depot.
To get the gasket in I had to fully unbolt my s-pipe so I could get enough of a gap between the two flanges to slide it in.
All together the fix cost me less than $20 and I feel it should last me a while.

Once the header is broken in a little more I'll post up some idle, revving, and running sounds clips of my set up.

So many people with fitment issues... I don't see how a lot of companies couldn't understand what I was talking about when they don't make s-pipes with the oem flange spec. Most aftermarkets parts need slight "modification" to work. I just don't understand.
This is why I still have a stock S pipe. The reset of the exhaust has been modded except the S pipe, and I have no problems at all with the exhaust. This header is as good as it looks and sounds great.
