Or the other way around. That would mean that Motoria ripped off SSA, and SSA ripped off OBX. LOL

In a way, if that's true, it's good for us. We get to choose the lower price between the two....capitalism at it's best

Nope. Moteria is in Korea and SSA is in the US. SSA has a habit of copying designs and relabling stuff from overseas to their own brands. OBX headers used to be sold thru SSA, then they found out how to cut out OBX and get straight from the MFR. Now they sell their own ripoff of the Moteria setup.

Moteria is just a large MFR company over in Korea. They make parts for several companies.
