There are a LOT of people who have had this problem since the 2bolt design sucks. There's some kind of gasket sealant that HondaHater (I think) recommended.

Here we go; he says to use something called Permatex.
ZZP Header Install - UPDATE!!

I never got mine. I had ordered the SS header/downpipe combo with the group buy, and he wasnt able to produce a timeline as to when they would be released, so I asked for a refund. He finally has pictures up of the product, but still no word on when they would be available for shipping.


I think I may go the clear image route after the new year give it a few more months for people to try them out.......
