pretty much all of the headers on ebay now are just the same OBX knockoff and distributed by different sellers.



so the XR-1, Formula, speed daddy, JDMyO, lightspeed, etc. headers are all the same stuff, just sold from a different company.



they will work fine.. since its a copied design, they will work like any other 4-2-1 header out there for the tib pretty much.. they wont sound very good though because of the cheap materials and construction.



you will notice gains though, as you will with any other tiburon header.

Yeah the cheap ones are known for having a buzzing sound, wrapping them nice and tight with heat wrap should help some and keep your temps down in the engine bay.



I want to say there was a thread on exhaust somewhere on RTD that someone found how to fix it or something was causing it, but its been like 2 years since I read anything on headers so I could be wrong.
