OBX header for 2.2/2.3

I'm thinking about buying an OBX header for my 2.3. There are dozens of threads talking about OBX headers for 3.0s, but almost nothing on the 4 cylinder models. You can pick up OBX stainless steel headers for $160 on ebay. That's a whole lot less than DC or Greddy headers. Who's got them? Any good? Thanks.

i think there was one guy here with the obx header and he didnt really feel the difference. but imo i dont think the difference in hp between an obx or greddy is going to be that much anyway. i mean if we have a dohc, then maybe the brand would matter more. dunno... anyone with experience?

Not yet - I didn't have time over the weekend. I needed a longer extension and a breaker bar to separate the 2-piece exhaust manifold, so I had to drive it to the store. Of couse, when I got back it was too hot to touch. Hopefully next weekend. It looks good and seems well made, esp. considering the fact I paid only $150. I saw a Chikara header recently and it looked like a piece of crap. I'll post after it's installed.

I just bought mine on ebay too for 140 plus shipping and all that, but hopefully it will work out I think I will wait on install until I can buy my exhaust too... going to stick with OBX type-H exhaust I think.

Does anyone want to buy my Neuspeed sport springs? brand new in box? the box is beat but springs are new and in packaging still... I think I am going to go Tien SS since it is only 300 more than springs and koni yellows.

Sacramento let me know what you needed to complete install and how much it cost and things like that thanks. Yeah someone had an OBX header on the f23 I think... said it worked fine if I remember correctly, had it on for over a year and no problems.
