Default Anyone using OBX headers?

For $499..a stainless system with catted y-pipe it looks like a good package. Anyone have experience with these?

It may look good in pictures but its a knock off. And they knocked off dynatech which is not even the best design out there. There are other headers out there that are alot better. Look to the sponsors on the right when you shop.

There is NOTHING wrong with the design of dynatechs. They may be an old design(they were FLP before dyantech) but they flow just as well & fit better than some of the cheaper ones

I saw 3 threads for people who had them. 2 guys had some slight issues, noe being the headers were on the starter, the other he said the fitment just sucked. the other guy enjoyed his but be aware of those "cats"

they arent cats but resonators designed to look like cats. if you want a cheap SS header and ORY system go with the XS. I've had them sicne they came out and the fit and finish were awesome and id highly reccomend them. theyre also a sponsor here now and for 550 shipped you get the ory and the headers and its worth every dime
