No company makes parts for our cars without market research. You know what the research is telling them in this thread? That if they make it, we will buy the knock off. Now why in hell would someone go through the expense of R&D to maybe get one group buy done before everyone else just buys the cheap crap?

The only advantage of the OBX is that they are stainless steel. Now the quality of that stainless is unknown, they are just going to discolor the first time they get hot, and they are under the engine never to be seen again so it doesn't matter.

Personally I'd trust PPE coated steel headers over these any day of the week and from what I've seen PPE's customer service will practically spit shine your shoes while they send a replacement if you have a problem with their product.
