the OBX headers are known for cracking over time. they are a knock-off of the pacesetter header

I've heard the same. I'm trying to stay away from the OBX.

I had a shop do a little cut on my bumper and touch it up with some paint. Or just go buy new hangers...but then its gonna bounce around.


heh suckers...got mine for 200...but i had to drive almost 3 horus there to get it..and another 3 hour trip back..

Will it stay in place normally? If not, did the cut help keep it sturdy or was that just to protect yourself from the rubbing? I don't want to buy it if it's going to be bouncing all over the ******* place. I planned on buying a body kit so if it's going to **** that up I may just be back to square 1

Nice deep tone and its not ricey. Maybe the tip, but i think it looks good.

But if i had the money laying around, i would have probably went GM performance. But the ebay one will do pretty much the same for a WAY lower price.
Mine was 2.5". measured before installing

They are respected in the import community and I have never seen or heard of this cracking aside from early(back when they were only on ebay) production.

Sorry to bump this up but I'm hoping maybe someone else could provide some input before I make any decisions.

hey everyone. I have contacted the ebay seller who is selling them and then said they have 30 catbacks on order as he is out of stock. It will still be $240 shipped. He told me to contact him end of next week.
