Never seen this. Don't judge, lol. Would I be looking at slightly better performance? Worse? Is it a piece of shit? Thanks!

there is a lot of info about these headers on the forum. They do not fit right and require removal of part of the engine mount. not sure if there is a way around that and it might prove expensive. Supersprint is your best bet or getting oem manifolds and welding in straight pipes.

MMW has headers in production right now, they should be released mid-February for review and hopefully Muirhead MotorWerks will resume more production.

As for OBX... Gavin@MMW did a review on them and says they are a POS and should be avoided. As said above, they are not perfect fit and you have to cut and weld a motor mount in order to fit them. Also, they are not protected by anything like ceramics so you will have to wrap them, which causes erosion faster [if it's your daily driver you're trying to modify].

i also heard that they throw out check engine lights being as you can't mount the O2 sensors on them cuz they don't have a slot to fit it, if you're thinking of tracking your car than it's fine but for DD, Gavin@MMW FTW! plus he's a pretty

guy
