That means you only bought a "header"... If you bought headers then either you bought them for the wrong application, or somone really put it too you... But like jim blake said, its veryveryvery basic, unbolt the old one, bolt on new one, that simple... Unless you bought one of those cheap ebay headers, then its unbolt old one, bolt on new one, take off new one and fix leaks caused by install, bolt on new one, wait three months, take off new one, fix leaks again, chunk in trash, spend your hard earned money on a quality header and you should be good...

Any after market headers are good hp gains over oem. to me, i dont worry to much about brands, as long as it durable, well built, no fitment issues, good flow, and amount of gains witch can only be proven on dynos.

DC is much better than megan...megan is = to ebay crap. CHeck your welds be4 and after install.
BTW headerS are 2 sets of a header...with 4clys you only have a single HEADER not headerS.

ill have to disagree with megan being crap. i have owned one of their headers for two years now. it was actually on the car when i bought it and the previous owner had it on there for a year or two as well. the welds actually arent too bad and they are fairly durable. two welds on mine are cracked a little but only because i bottomed out and smashed it 
. i have a new one waiting for the replacement when my new suspension is all done. they arent in anyway the greatest but they work for me. if you want real gains talk to bisimoto.
