Do you mean Comptech? If so then contact Len, he's running a Comptech race header and can probably give you some feedback.

It could be that this is one of those companies that manufactures inferior products under a name similar to that of one of high praise in order to fool the unknowing or provide the prestige of the higher quality part with an imitation at a fraction of the cost. Think about fake Rolex watches and Oakley sunglasses. Or it could be a used Comptech header.

I wouldn't worry too much about it being fake, I was just being sarcastic. $200 sounds decent for a used Comptech header though, depending upon condition.

You're looking at ~$400-$500 for a Comptech header, base model, when purchasing new from a dealer like myself.

If you're getting a used Comptech header for $200, then you're probably getting a 4-2-1. IIRC, the Comptech 4-1 sells for nearly $1000.

they make one up from that, it's called simply the Race Header.

Retail is $995, I charge 10% off that.
