OBX header install pics!

Definately more sound and theres more throttle response and more power for sure, not more off the line but its there when you jam on the gas after a tight turn or the such. Oh, and it takes longer to crank up I noticed? Just takes longer to build up back pressure because of the first cat being gone I guess. Engine seems to run more freely too, it hasnt been on the highway yet so ill let you know about all that stuff tomorrow night.

Is your exhuast fully stock with the exception of the hdear obviously? I didn't notice any difference in sound in my exhuast, but then again im all stock with the exception of header and intake.

OBX header and OBX axleback. The axleback gave my car a nice deep tone, and the header just made it louder and deeper, and that rasp I was hearing earlier went away once it got warmed up good, I havent heard it again.

Or just polish the s*** outa it or chrome it. Or just leave it stock...lol

it already is polished.. if I paint it, it'll be high temp flat black. Polished wouldn't look right at all in my engine bay.
