OBX headers for the V6 - Page 6 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

i am going to get these, i dont need cats and even though i have heard mixed reviews, you cant beat the price VS perfomance aspect.

have you gotten a CEL yet? are you running O2 extenders?

I got mine sitting in the garage and the welds look good. The opening of the manifold look really good too and nothing like the comparison that they did on v8 section with the kooks header. It look like somebody already tried to grind out the imperfection in the opening and made it almost perfectly smooth and round.
I am happy for the price I paid and thought kinda low of it at first but after seeing one up close in person this seem like a really good deal for the price.
it look like it was gaining right about the same as other usual long tube header on the dyno for the v8 guys so I expect the same for the v6. I just have to find someone close to me with a proper dyno so I can see the result.

I think the rims are kinda cool. It's a creative low(ish) cost old school mod that embodies the spirit of Hot Rodding/modding.

I like my LS rims - just wish they were about 10lbs lighter.

cntryman77 · 12-19-2011, 11:09 AM

I actually like the LS rims than the factory 20s...I'm still playing with the idea of finding a set of the factory aluminum 18s & having them powder coated orange, but that's far down the "mods to do" list

Where can I purchase the obx headers

rtcat600man · 06-26-2012, 12:58 PM

Can anyone comment on the drone increase, with an aftermarket muffler, at 70-75 mph?

I had MRT's alone and there was a minimum amount of drone.

I added the OBX headers and the rasp at 2500 - 3000 rpm's was unbearable.

I added the Magnaflow resonated X pipe and it took care of 98% of the drone and no more rasp.

The drone will depend on which aftermarket exhaust some will be worse than others, but like catman said the res x will solve almost all of it.
