Default 93 accord obx header sux big time

I tried an obx header and the gasket in the middle leaked. So I found a new one. Now the flex pipe is failing. I do not recommend obx products!!!

You get what you're willing to pay for.

Check out this flex connector!!!!! I purchased it in October of 2010, so much for that one year warranty.

So I scored a cheap header off Craigslist for $15. So I was able to take off the OBX header. I have been told that I need to have my product registered to claim a limited lifetime warranty. I guess the bracket broke and let the flex pipe flex too far? The flex pipe braid is like shredded wheat it crumbles and fall apart when you touch it.
