it looks really sh*tty lol. so is it $22 or $62? i'd buy it if it's 22, but not if it's 62 that's too expensive, sike.

hey i saw those too and laughed.
BUT - what about the stainless steel headers being sold as generic ones? If you came across these ceramic POS's, you must have seen the stainless ones. They are identical the the megan racing ones. Anyone have anything to say about those? I have a thread going about them specifically because honestly I'm tempted to give them a shot... I could deal without any sort of name brand if it means saving some moo-la!
then again, you get what you pay for... sometimes...

that's not that bad....pretty much as good of quality as DC headers.

little bit of grinding and MAYBE some touch up welding and you've got a REALLY cheap header that'll perform the same, maybe even better after working over, as one of the $300 ones.

i'll prob pick on up and fix the SMALL issues wiht it. thanks for the info

"you get what you pay for" really applies in this case. Your stock header would probably make more HP that that piece of crap.

You would think that the one the used for the advertisment would actually have the gap filled in between the flange and the tubing, but if that is the one that they are using for the photoshoot, then I can only imagine what you're going to get if you purchase one.

Well, judging from this, I'd say it about sums up the quality.

I messaged the seller about the craftsmanship. Here's what I got:

Dear sevenaprils,

I'm sorry but what it show on the item is what we have sorry again.
