Default Any Suggestions on an H2B Header, Because I'm having a Problem here

Okay things aren't going according to plan. I was going to go with Camp1320 but there on backorder, RMF, SMSP, SSR, and Hytech all have prices that can pay my rent and they're out of my budget atleast for now until get settled in my new apartment. Plus some of those headers take long too. Now I'm hearing that alot of guys on here are buying cheap ebay headers and bending/modding the angle so it'll meet with the cat/pipe. Are there any decent brands that will work atleast alright temporarily, like MeganRacing, or OBX. Can someone enlighten me on this. Oh and by the way time is an issue just incase some feel I should just wait. This swap must be done in about 2weeks

Anyone with a torch and some experience with exhausts can make any of those econo headers work. My first choice would be a fabrication shop over an exhaust shop.

You have any decent ebay or knockoff brands in mine. I had Meganracing or OBX in mind. What do you think.

I have no idea. I live in the FI world

probably something uncoated would be best since you have to heat it up.

Damn I was reading that the stock h22 header is not easy
to heat and bend because of the material.

here's something I tried to sell a long time ago.. I have a modified stock 2-1 'downpipe' to go with it.

I'm not sure how much different an h2b is compared to my h22's angle but it would only have to be slightly tweeked if anything.
