Difference in these headers?

What's the difference between these headers, or are they identical?

Don't see anything different, except one picture looks better than the other! Both the same size!

Here are two headers on sale by a sponsor of this forum.
1 7/8's and 2" both the same price. Just saying.

The 1 7/8 are out of stock till mid march but I agree that i'd much rather pay the little bit extra to get them from TSP. Great customer service is worth much more than the difference.

No difference. Same brand, same company, same price. Dollar for dollar, you won't find a better price that comes with HF cats!! I have these headers and the OBX 3 inch exhaust!!

You mean the extenders? Yea you would have to purchase them separately. I never bought the extenders tho, I just made the connectors reach. Probably better off with the extenders...

Yes you'll only need the front two, you might end up buying them though because they tend to break due to GM not using a dab of antiseize on them.

did all of the connections (4 i believe) require being extended, i would just buy the extenders just in case i decide to put the factory headers on for the sake of wanting to have to the car be stock again if i want.

I didn't have to extend any of them. The front ones tho are the ones that will be the most trouble reaching.

That's a pretty high price for a catless system from a less known company...at least I never heard of them. And they make some pretty bold claims. 55RWHP/50RWTQ...?? I don't know. I'd say go with OBX if money is an issue. Otherwise, go with TSP 2" headers. Although TSP is backed up for a while...so you'll have to wait for them.
