My friend has.
Is your question about how its a lot longer than the stock ex manifold? It pretty much eliminates the cat. You will need to cut off a portion of the exhaust, and then have it rewelded on

Re: (gutted-dx)
For the same reason I do. These cheeseball knockoff headers are produced in chinese factorys. Ok, you say...so is a lot of stuff. But, these are made in a place that does no kind of research and development at all. The job is simple, take a popular product or design and reproduce mass quantities to sell for peanuts. Well this really hits home at the people who develop the products and design in the first place.
Just like anything else in this world, some of us take great pride in our parts and purchases. Some are fine with cheaper products that may be ok or just plain suck. Whatever the case may be, nobody is wrong for their reasons.... just my view on things.

If you had been around longer than 4 ******* months then you would know that I am not proud to sell that header, nor will I. Know what the **** you're talking about before you open that dumbass mouth of yours newjack.

1) We don't offer the "Hytech" header. This was a limited batch that we ordered in "for a wholesale customer", and had a few left in stock which we were trying to sell off and done so only in the UK. We never have and never will "rip off" another company. If you look through our current catalog, we do not offer the headers any longer as we have sold all of the original batch.
2) And do you know what cam gears the Buddyclub cam gears look like? If you actually look at our cam gears first hand though, you will instantly tell the difference between ours and the cheap BC, UGR etc etc. For one, our outer ring is coal-blasted and has a textured surface to prevent belt slippage. Secondly, our bolts are Grade-8 carbon-steel. Third, we don't use cheap 6061. Looks can be deceiving
3) Do you know where most of the worlds Oil Coolers are made? Certainly NOT in the USA. Bridgestone didn't invent the tire. They only improved upon it
Its surprising you brought up Buddyclub. Have you looked through their catalog recently? You know, their spanking new K20 Exhaust Header. What factory do you think makes them?

Re: (b20sedan)
Ok, I wasn’t bashing your guy’s product. MFactory oil coolers = 
I like mine and the price was great.
I haven’t seen your guy’s cam gears aside from the pictures on h-t but I have a set of Buddy Club gears, I was just making an observation, they look similar.
There K series header was made by the same factory that makes the F1Spec header? Am I right??
All in all I don’t see how this header is any different then Blox, Rota, etc. (I’m not bashing them either)
Just about everything Blox makes looks like Skunk2, Rota wheels are replicas of other more expensive wheels i.e. Mugen, SSR, Volk, etc. They sell because they are lower priced then there more original counterparts. When you need to buy pharmaceutical medicine do you boycott generic brand that may cost less than half of the original because they just copy the original med? Alright that’s enough rambling from me (someone’s going to quote me and pick my post apart) I’m sorry if offended any manufacturer.

No need to apologize, no one was offended. Just thought I would clear up a few misconceptions, and I apologize if I offended you in any way
Most of BC's products (as in BC USA, not the original First Inc) are made in Taiwan, from the same factories that manufacture for countless other US companies. This is why the products look similar as they are just rebrands of existing products available to the local market. They are not cheap copies/replicas. For the most part, they are the same item.
This is also the reason why all the products from these companies are all appearing on eBay for dirt cheap under different brand names.
It is simply upto the companies themselves to take the initiative and offer newer and unique products to the market that are different from mass market, then 1 or 2 years down the line, release something else as eBay will have caught up again
