OBX headers? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey guys lookin for some headers for my baby. Im wondering if the OBX ones are any good? Not looking to spend on $1200 on headers when I can get the same performance from headers that are cheaper. Im looking in the range of $500-$650 any suggestions? Oh Im also considering Stainless Works/Power.

I have Stainless Power. I can't say anything about the OBX but the SP are great.

Just search this section for OBX. I'm sure you'll find all you're looking for. The good and the bad.

I have them. They are great. I didn't wanna spend $800-$1600 for headers...I could have, but I didn't want to. So I narrowed it down to TSP and OBX. OBX was slightly cheaper so they got my money. The headers look great for what you pay for them. They fit perfectly. And they perform great. Its been about a year and about 10,000 miles and I haven't had any issues at all. Get them and join the OBX family, lol!!

There aren't too many LT's in that price range to compare too.
I think OBX,stainless power, and TSP are similar price.

I bought used TSP's... for 350.00 they are nice.

Got TSP 1 7/8 LT Headers over here. Love them, easy fitment as well. In your price range you speak of too.

I had them for almost a year...driven the car a few times in the snow and a part of them rusted underneath....they literally rusted...

Go TSP

OBX LT's for 2 years , no problems what so ever. Very happy for ~$400 investment.

The great thing about the TSP headers is this:

Choose your primary size
Upgraded Collector
Velocity Spike
Off Road Pipes Look Like Cats
High Flow Cats Available
3" X pipe Available
Full 3" exhaust available

Not to mention they've been proven to make power second to none!!

I had them for over a year...driven them in every snow and rain we've had here in NJ, mine work fine. BTW, not gonna get into a debate over metals, but maybe you should learn about stainless steel...because I don't think you know what you're talking about.

While OBX's are reportedly 304SS, there have been some issues trying to get hold of OBX if you have any problems. For that reason alone, i'd go with TSP's. They are about the same price when it's all said and done and if you have ANY issues, TSP is just a phone call away to get you sorted out.
