Cause it’s a cheap knock-off that will almost certainly crack and give you problems. ---

As I see it. I’m prob gonna wanna turbo here next spring/summer, and turbo = no header right… So why buy a name brand headere for 400-500$? And if it pooches out on me and cracks. You can get another cheapy header and toss that on right. P.S. I didn’t have to grind mine at all. Went straight in. The only problem I had was getting my 2nd o2 sensor out. ---

I defiantly see them being a knock off but as for quality I’m quite impressed. My GF just got one for her Spec and I am very happy with it. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020265.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020265.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020255.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020255.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020263.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ragerman/Megans/P1020263.jpg) ---

the thing is that i plan on probably going to rebuild and hopefully do a turbo next yr, so i don’t really want to spend 500 or more on headers if i can get the same hp gains from those ---
