Default Best price on OBX stainless LT headers and catted connector pipes???

Looking to order a set ASAP. My buddy just ordered some on eBay for $505 shipped in stainless with the resonated connector pipes brand new. Looking for that same deal but can't find them for under $650. Anyone have a connection or know where I can find em for a good price?

You can make them an offer on ebay, dont think you can get them for 550 but they might give you a deal

I offered $550 and it was declined. That's the most I'm willing to offer at this point considering shipping puts me at $605 already. I'm going to hunt for the same $505 shipped deal my buddy found. I'm sure someone will be willing to do it or get close.

Good luck, you should be able to find some for your price range, and let us know if you find a place that can beat ebay prices

I'm hunting. Even called a couple buddies that have contacts to see what they can do for me. So far I haven't found any cheaper than the current eBay price which is $704 shipped. I have a copy of my buddies invoice from when he ordered his for $504 shipped. I just want a deal like that or close to it and I'll buy right now.

are you sure his came with cats, or just the resonators. The price on ebay is for the highflow cats too. You can try to contact them to see if they still sale the ones with just the resonators.

His are resonator connectors which I'd prefer between those at the high flow cats. I just assumed he had the catted ones cause typically they offer 2 options with connector pipes... Catted or offroad. I don't need cats nor do I want to pay any extra for them. I want Offroad connectors or the small resonator pipes he got with his.

try to send them an email on ebay, I looked for a "contact us" on their website and couldnt find it. You can ask if they still have the resonator option, let us know what they say.

I must have lucked out-got the whole mess for $440 on Ebay about 6 weeks ago. Love 'em. I connected resonators right to stock exhaust system, keeps the Caddy quiet, until you get the Maggie going!

Lmk what they quote you price wise. I'm emailed OBX directly yesterday so I'm awaiting an answer. I'm going to call racing part depot today and see what they can do for me.

Got an answer back on ebay:

"only high flow cats header in stock and with resonator header out of stock for 10 week"

I shouldve also asked for a price quote on flied lice. Morons.

they now want $650 for "high flow cats" as opposed to old (last month) price $440 (resonators). Boy, they both look exactly the same. I bought the cheaper version, just in time apparently. My tuner assures me I will pass MASS state inspection due to some trickery in his tune. If not, I buy the cats, I guess. Not for another year anyway.

Not a the communist state of california... Mass is probably short for massachusetes.

MD i was catless on both of my previous cars for atleast one emissions check. They just OBD2 check the car so a good tune or a programmer(COBB Accessport) and your good to go. The subaru was high flow catted for most of its life but changed later on.
