Default JBA shorty headers

I just bid on a used set on ebay. My high bid was $100. Worth it or not? I figured if I won them for that then they would be. .

If you live in CA or are going to use boost then they'll work pretty well. On a n/a setup they are not worth it at all and you'll see 3-5rwhp at most.

Lt's are the only sensible option for n/a, it's not about flow but scavenging and you need longer primaries for this.

If you can get a set of JBA's for 100$....Sell them for 350$. I think new they are around 500-650 depending on where you get them.

Not worth it unless you can resell them.

I don't really have a choice, i have to go shorty since my application is a little custom. 1990 Porsche 911 with "the transporter"'s previous race motor. +500 hp N/A with 1 3/4'' primaries but i'm a bit limited on space. Does any know of a shorty thats 1 3/4'' primary?

Those are my headers on ebay. I had them listed on here in the for sale thread and got two offers and decided to put them on ebay . They have 1 5/8" primaries and 2 1/2" collectors. Here is the link to how much the cost. I had a buy in now for $450 which I think is very reasonable considering how good a shape they are in and how much they cost originally.
