OBX LT Header Questions....Links Provided!

[craven]

i was looking into longtubes for my 2005 GT coupe, i have had obx headers before, on my acura/hondas..

what i have come to find with them is they are an exact replica of an expensive header...

in the case of the 2002-04 rsx type S obx header, it was a comptech replica which was a 900 dollar header, i got the obx one for 300 new!

which model did the 05GT obx header replicate?

i currently have super 44's w/ stock cast headers, and o/r h pipe....would they be worth it? and the specs are 1 1/2 tube size, and 2.5 inch collector...

comes with 2 headers, gaskets, 2 piece o/r h, and 2 piece catted h.....475 shipped stainless polish...

any thoughts? links below!

Looks a lot like JBA's to me.

OBX's are basically a JBA knockoff....search OBX on here and I believe there are numerous threads on this..

ok thanks guys...i was looking and read a bit about that....are the diameters the same on the tubes 1.5 inch?

 

[Mankussm]

Look like a great deal if they are good quality.

Did you ever give that guy his money back?

this thread has nothing to do with that, but if its a major concern for you, the bumper was delivered a long time ago...

 

[craven]

just noticed this thread was moved, why and who did it?

 

[LAStang1234]

ok good!

 

[craven]

ok good!

i was backed up at work and out of town, and it was poorly planned, but i always keep my word...late, but delivered

I figured someone who didn't follow through a sale and takes the guys money shouldn't really be allowed to be on this forum, but glad its all resolved.

I have a set of the obx's the ones that came with 2 different h-pipes, I haven't had a single problem out of them and the finish is still good with no rust, And they are jba knock offs all the way down to the fire-cone in the collector , they moved this to chat because all you're wanting is feed back on the headers and nothing really technical

ok, cool thanks man! quick question.....

with the following mods what do you think my ET will be?

C&L Racer 95mm CAI
OBX LT's
o/r h pipe
flow master super 44's
Steeda UDP's
Steeda Delete Plates
FRPP 3.73 Gears

Bamachips 93 Race Tune

 

[1fast05]

Well lets see,when I first got my car I put the cnl street cai,steeda udp's,ford stinger muffler and the stock 3.55 gears with a 7k rpm launch on 275/40/17 nitto's I went 12.69 at 107 so you should be close to that, i wouldn't have went with the 3.73's they're too close to the 3.55's but you should be well into the 12's if you have the balls to launch that thing hard

Yes it sure was delivered... I am really amused seeing you here Mr. Benoit. I will hijack this thread. For anyone following this stellar person and the great deal he gave me on a "perfect" condition bumper, please.... Don't let him pull the wool over your eyes like he did to me. I am dumbfounded this dude actually thinks I am going to let him fly... You got some nerve there Corey. I am not the only he has shafted. He has screwed over dudes on some seats, parts for an Acura, done DJ's dirty with his so called "Famous Studios" in Fayetteville, NC. Done people dirty on computers... He never resolved the issue with me... Sure I got the bumper, but let me tell you it was TORE UP!!! Came wrapped up in what looked like saran wrap and tape gun tape with a sad shipping label... Even the UPS guy told my cousin who received it, "hey bro....ummm this this is f*cked up" Check my post on his "part out" thread.... http://s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=495687#post495687 You fellas be the judge. This dude is the scum of the mustang community, and I will not let him have an easy time.... Yeah, I got beef with this fool... I work hard for my bread and am honest with my business. There is crap in every bunch and he is the prime of it. Yeah it is resolved cuz this prick can't man up and reply PM's or answer his phone calls, and return voicemails. I know I don't have many posts here but seriously admins, ban this dude. He deserves nothing from anyone here. He is probably tryin to buy those headers with someones hard earned chip that he took. SO... Corey Benoit, who lives in Fayetteville, NC, you post I will follow up calling out your BS... Unless you make right on your shadiness and do what I requested in the last pm I sent you more than a month ago, I will not let it go. Sorry admins, mods, and members but this dude deserves no slack.....
