What do u mean negative? Is it because the listing is over or are you saying the header is not good? I just found Vibrant's website and that same header is over $600!

Well according to the seller who now has turbo, he did not even notice any difference so how is it useless? I mean can a dent really affect its performance and is he lying to me about not noticing any difference after the dent on the downpipe?

The diameter of the tubing is crucial for optimum performance and when it is crushed it becomes smaller. Maybe his butt dyno has been playing up recently?

It's still pretty cheap though so you could get it repaired and still have a decent header for a decent price

Yeah thats what I was thinking too I seen a post on here where the guy cut out the smashed part of his downpipe (think it was a hytec header) and welded a new piece. It looked kinda ghetto but heck I bet it still works just as well.

So yeah I was thinking about going that route too

From the same seller:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...n%3D2

Not threadjacking but how does this look for the price?
