OBX SS Headers anygood?
Whats the differnence between Comptech?
How much gain?
Is it worth it?

 

comptech = quality

obx=****

 

i believe Nick M is running a OBX header ask him what he thinks

 

obx is a greddy copy, its a 4-2-1 header with decent tig welds hardly **** but eh, kamikaze makes a good header too,

comptech is expensive.

 

Kamikaz? Whats the Website

Why u guys say OBX sux?

 

obx love to make copy of everything in the market..
not saying they are suck but some of the material they use
are cheap and cheesy..i have little to no personal experience with
obx so i wont say a thing..

 

Do anyone have OBX SS Headers installed in their car. What does it feel like or What gains you feel woth them?

 

contact kteller, i purchased my kamakazie header today, and they are reasonably priced. mkteller8@aol.com

 

I have an OBX 4-2-1 SS header on my jdm H22a. I installed it all at once so I cant tell you if I felt any difference in the butt dyno. The quality is pretty decent, I havent had any problems with it at all or anything, it fit fine. With a straight intake (battery relocation), OBX header, test pipe, and 2.25" catback to a Matrix straight thru muffler it is loud as all hell though at WOT.

 

how do you get this? my friend has obx on his DSM (i know its not a honda but still)
and its still holding great, 3 years and running. nice gains too (butt-dyno wise)

dont get me wrong, comptech is great but i wanna see hard facts that its worth the extra money.

 

my personal experience with OBX products is that they are about the same quality as APC.

To be fair though, I had OBX foglights, not a header. Nick Ms feedback is probably more relevent here

 

For those who think Comptech is in the upper echelon of quality.....you're sorely mistaken.

 

Iv'e had an OBX Ceramic header on my 97 Accord and hated it! The welds are garbage and hit one small bump on the bottom of the downpipe and it's severely bent. Not to strong of material used. Had nothing but leaks from that header everywhere. One around the O2 sensor, another where the bracket bolts to the rear of the oil pan and some small leak somewhere not pin-pointed. "Ratherbewalking" can vou vouch for me when I say OBX Headers are ......Go with a Kamikazee.

 

Interesting experience. But like any other product there are plenty of horror stories. Just look at DC Sports.

 

Guys, stop recommending he go with Kamikaze, cause they don't make one for his V6 application. However, I think if you're willing to take the risk with quality, I'm sure you'd get the same amount of power as the Comptech headers.
