I got the OBX headers back in September. They fit extremely well, gave noticeable power, they sound great, and I've had no issues with them!! I installed the OBX 3 inch cat-back exhaust this past Sunday and the exhaust sounds even better now!! And again, fitment and quality was great!! And the car is a bit faster now as well!!

OBX is a little cheaper, however, what kind of O2 sensors will I need to buy because for the TSP I can just buy the O2 sensors on the same website I got the TSP.

The TSP headers are supported by TSP so you have someone on the phone all the time. We offer 1 7/8" or 2" options for the same price, the TSP system uses a Magnaflow cat instead of a chinese cat, the TSP headers have a merge style collector, the TSP header is of a thicker material for better sound control, the TSP headers off-road pipes still look like cats to trick your friends, the TSP system can later on accept a 3" TSP x pipe or the full 3" muffler system. The TSP system also includes GM gaskets for a trouble free install.

thought lashway quit selling OBX?

Jason 98 TA · 01-16-2013, 03:41 PM

I think OBX does make a 3" x pipe & cats if you don't mind it downsizing to 2.5" right before it goes back up to 3". Who knows why you'd down size a 3" collector to 2.5" only to go back to 3" immediately...

If I was to buy the TSp which I am leaning toward should I buy the 1 7/8 or 2''?
- once agian I have a 90mm ported throttle body, diablo intune, vararam intake and flowmaster outlaw axle back.

ive seen all these exhaust up close, obx flanges are sometimes warped, TSP arent too bad. i would def go with stainless power.

TSP hand dowsn in that price category, only ones that aren't knockoffs. Props to TSP on that one.

Without being childish I would say you can't go wrong with either.

I happen to have obx. I didn't even know tsp existed before I bought them. Knowing what I know now still don't regret my decision. It's a win win..just not in a ultra P.C. world.
