Default Question about this header???

I saw this on E-bay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cg...item=594520628 and was wondering if anybody knows exactly what this is. It says it is a DC Sports header bored out 1mm more for more air flow!

Anybody have any experience with this? What makes me suspicious is that...if it's a DCsports header bored out, why is it so cheap?! the DCsports header would have to be bought first and then bored out...so it should be MORE than a DC....right? Also...wouldn't boring it out make the sidewallls weaker?
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
Thanks and layta!

This is a copy of the DC Sports header made by OBX.

Thaks reid!
So its a copy! Is it any count? maybe worth the $$ if you're on a tight-*** budget? (like me) I really want a header bad, but I'm thinking I should stay the course and keep saving for a comptech header and exhaust combo....waddya guys think?

ok. personally i wouldn't bid on this because he has a seller rating of (only) 2.
i think that thing goes for roughly $200.
you're right. buying obx headers should be for an extremely tight budget.
you should be able to find a (real) DC for around $300.
if you can save up for comptech, that's cool. lots of people like theirs.

OBX is garbage, at the very least go for a ceramic DC.
