"Now on to the Header. I picked it up for $80 plus shipping off of eBay seller AutoGrimmig months ago. It has never been installed and has the two O2 Sensor Bungs welded in with bolts in them, and EGR tube bung. I have also purchased a set of non-foulers so you can do the Check engine light trick, and the donut gasket from mazda that connects from the header to the mid-pipe. These come with at no extra cost."
this is boser2's thread!!

Looks like OBX, could be Tsudo or another brand. Don't care, shiny, new, has the egr and o2 bungs in the right spots. For the price I cannot pass it up. I have the OBX that will come off the car in case of any issues with that one. I also have another OBX with 3 bungs on it for use with wbo2 plus the regular 2 o2 sensors. I'm down with it soon as he gets back from vacation.
Yeah i know it does look like an OBX but i dont think it is. He doesn't say which one it is if its some knock off JDM brand man you dont want those either the EGR Bung holes are never welded in the right place! It doesn't matter if its Shiny stainless steal the welds are really thin on those ive read alot of stories on how the Welds break like less than a year later there not good quality when that happens so if you have an OBX header stay with that one you cant go wrong.
The fact that he doesn't say what brand it is and that he got it off Ebay tells me it's some Knock off Header from China and you definitely don't want to put that cheap crap on your car because the EGR and O2 Bungs never line up right plus the welds are really thin and they end up breaking like 6 months later from owning them. Keep your OBX header man and save yourself the Headache. The Turbo Kit does sound nice though.

My OBXs are from ebay too. Ebay doesn't make a s*** one way or another. The EGR fitting looks just fine and is pointed the right way. The extra gaskets are make it pretty much worth the asking price alone but thanks for your concern.
Absolutely you got it man!
Hello everyone, I am back home.
For everyone's questions about the header, I feel as though the sale post explains it very well. It is not an OBX header, It is a less expensive one from eBay seller AutoGrimmig. The very low asking price for the header, gaskets, and non-foulers together reflects that. I believe the actual company that makes the header is M2 Performance. It is very well made and the EGR and O2 bungs are in the correct locations.
M2P503 is correct though, it is not OBX and there is no warranty.
Both the Turbo kit and the Header package are currently pending sale.

I can use this one if the real OBX ever needs to be sent back for warranty issues......there is something to be said for redundant backups.
Payment sent.

Header received, thanks. Quality of welds & construction appear to be no different than either of the OBXs I have........
