headers...reccommandation?

What type of headers do you guys have? I was thinking about going with GReddy, or DC, but I saw some stainless OBX ones for 140 on EBAY...anyone have these? thanks.

OBX are fine... I just bought mine... there are a whole bunch of threads on this matter. Haven't installed mine yet but from what I read off of here when I was debating what kind of header to get OBX is great for the price and had been reliable.

None of those posts had anything to do with anything. Anyway since the other thread was pretty old, has anyone else gotten and installed their OBX header? and how long have you had it in? what type of exhaust system did you install along with it? I was thinking the DTM or the type-H from OBX but I cannot find the DTM only the type H on ebay.

I've got an OBX stainless steel header sitting in my trunk. Hopefully I'll have time to install it this weekend. It looks good and appears to be well-made, but I'm not giving it a thumbs up until I actually do the install.

OK, my OBX header moved from my trunk to my engine over the weekend. I had one hell of a time getting those spring loaded bolts between the cat and header lined up and tight so I had a massive exhaust leak. I stopped at an exhaust place this morning and they put in a new gasket and tightened it up for $30. Man, I wish I had a lift in my garage...trying to align the pipes while laying flat on my back was a bitch.

I've read on here that headers don't add a whole lot of HP to our motors - whoever said that was right. I can only feel a tiny increase in performance. I'm glad I didn't pay $300-$400 for a DC or Greddy.
