Stainless Ecotec 2.0L Cobalt SS Supercharged Header: eBay Motors (item 290493444393 end time Nov-07-10 05:02:19 PST)

any good it sounds similar to those with 1-5/8 just curious will it actually do anythin or will i be throwing money out the window

 

no no and no

 

wats a good header thats not outrageous

 

Would personally not stick anything from ebay on my car.

 

Same here. Stay away from ebay stuff.

 

a lot of people run the ebay bad mad header. i got one just not installed.

 

That's a bad mab header a few people have them on the site never heard anything bad about them they have a site u can check out badmab.com

 

alright good advice

 

that looks just like the CA v2 header

 

that's wat i was thinking but than again idk wats better. Im guessing 4-2-1 headers r the best but 600+ for it just doesnt justify its purpose

 

I had a very nice looking ebay header on my focus in '02. It lasted about 3 weeks before it started cracking. Stay away from ebay junk!

 

I have this header, the quality is very good and it looks great, has a 3" collector to bolt right up to your zzp 3"dp . Just cause the guy sells it on ebay doesnt mean ****, the dude is also selling a bad ass stainless steel dp for the turbo cars and it looks great. If you dont want to spend 600 bucks on a set up just get this and it will be fine. There are allot of ******* people on this site that dont know **** and are quick to give out bad information or advise, there is nothing wrong with this header other than the primary size isnt giant.

I have also had this header on my car for about 6 months and no issues whatsoever, even if it does break which i doubt it will, the guy has a lifetime warranty on it, he is also a supporting vendor on the site.

its got a warranty tho

 

*facepalm* there are alot of reputable places that have ebay stores as well as regular ones.. badmab is one of them hell i think zzp does as well

people need to get over the ebay sucks mentality

badmab makes quality stuff and from what i recall is a member on this site

 

i have a header on my 2.2 from badmab, never have had a problem with it

 

This.

 

bad-mab makes those, pretty good from what I hear. the same thing went down last year on the grand prix forums, ebay headers started popping up and everyone said "NO WAY" to them at first. then we realized they were just a stainless steel version of slp's headers they used to make for the grand prix and now everyone loves them.

try it out, if it fits good then you've found a great alternative to expensive headers.

 

One thing off of ebay that is awesome is ebay brakes, they got a set of 4 drilled and slotted rotors by kinetic, which is powerstops off brand, and powerstop ceramic brake pads I thinks its 180 with free shipping, I have had them on my car for about a year now and that thing stops on a dime and brake fade is greatly reduced

 

CA and Bad-Mab headers are made from the same company

 

I have dealt with many bad dealers on ebay in my time and even ran my own store for 6 years selling computer related stuff. Its to much of a pain especially selling on there. I never said the quality of the product is bad all i stated is that i would never put a ebay product on my car.

The product could be perfectly fine its just not for me.

Way to many horror stories about ebay parts on a car.

 

but it really isnt an ebay part. it is a part made by a company sold on ebay.

you can buy gm parts on ebay. does that mean they are worse quality then gm parts sold on gm parts direct? nope.

 

you do realize thats a contradiction.. right? buying it somewhere aside from ebay wont change a damn thing lol

thats like saying i'm not going to buy an xbox 360 from walmart because some of their misc no name/ off brand **** sucks ..

not to mention.. the listing has their site address on there.. so it's not like they're an ebay only company

95% of the time a company that is shitty to deal with on ebay is going to be shitty to deal with anywhere else..

 

I see what you are saying there. I just dont trust sellers on ebay. Been screwed and seen plenty of friends being screwed by sellers.

And any header thats 189 has got to be a piece of crap. Most headers for our car are at least 400+.

 

Great header. Iv met the guy in person. Drives a Black LSJ. Super cool guy and the header is great. Definitly worth the money. I have his LNF Downpipe on my car.

 

^this.

I bought my tail lights from ebay and they rock! They couldn't be better. Just because it's from EBAY doesn't mean it's bad.
