OBX VS Comptech Headers
I have OBX SS headers on right now my insurance gave me comptech headers as replacements should i put them in or sell them. How much difference is the OBX SS headers and the Comptech headers. If there is not much difference i think i would just keep them on there becuase install them was a bitch. Need your help!!! I have a 02 TL-p.

I would say since you got comptechs already, use it. Its the best header avail. for our car. No matter what, youll take a hit on the value either you sell it now or after you use it for a year or two.

well depends on how bad you need the money...you could get quite a bit for those headers on this site - and not every OBX header is bad, so if yours are fine, keep them - the performance is virtually identical between the header brands.

are OBX headers really that bad?
someones selling 3 month used ones from an accord dual exhaust v6 for only $150

just make the switch to the comptechs so you don't ever have to deal with weld problems, sell the OBX's for $150 shipped, then go and buy yourself a UR crank pulley so you get two for one! problem solved.
