Default OBX longtube review

To anybody who is looking to get longtubes please read this.

Despite what some might say the quality of these OBX longtubes are GREAT!

The set on ebay is only 530 shipped for the longtubes, gaskets, and 2 h pipes (off road, and one with resnators). ALOT cheaper then any other set.

I installed these a few days ago. The fitment was PERFECT! got them in in just under 4 hours. I am very happy with them and glad i didnt fork out the money on the bigger name brands.

Oh and they make GREAT power! Picked up 60 rwhp from these, stage II cams, UDP's, and delete plates

Good news man, glad you're happy with them.

What grade steel are they built with and are they ceramic coated?

Wow you cant beat that price of 530 bucks for all that hardware. Sure beats paying close to a 1000 or more for the other brand names. Great rwhp numbers too!

Keep in mind that OBX headers are made in China. I know not everyone takes country of origin into account when buying parts, but others might. I like to purchase as many US parts for my Mustang as possible.

They are made in china, but the american counterpart is going to cost you twice as much.

Im not a baller, ill support america when i can, but if i can get a part that fits and performs just as well for half the price im going to
