Default Know anything about these headers??

So I'm looking for a set of LT's on Ebay and just came across this...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...link:middle:us

I've never heard of that company and am wondering if it's a good deal, or if I should save a little longer and buy from a more reputable company.

Please let me know your thoughts!


Jeff

*if anyone's selling a set of LT's, I'm interested....*

Really? Do they offer a discount on here? Seeing as it comes with an off-road H pipe, do you think that set up w/my Pypes mid-muffler system would be overly loud? I, personally, do not care, but my wife drives the car as much as I do and don't need to give her another excuse to bitch at me....lol.

those look like my obx headers which i love, and i also had the mid muffler system and i actually sold it because it was defening loud!!! my header kit came with a resonated h-pipe which sounds waaaayyyy better and tones the sound a bit. i do not recomend the off-hpipe

There has been a couple big threads about these recently. Basically, they are good headers but they have some fitment problems. Search for the threads you'll see what I mean, there are even pictures of them installed.

well if they dont fit they dont fit. No matter if its u or someone else doin the install. So why not spend money on a quality set of headers.
