When dealing with any kind of piping, quality costs money. That's not to say a set of headers from eBay will instantly fail or restrict airflow, but the vendors who sell headers on Camaro5 all sell respectable products that are built with consistency and quality.
As someone who deals with piping regularly, I can tell you how obvious it is when you put a good pipe by a bad pipe, and when you start talking about welds, flow, and materials, there's going to be a profound difference. The risks of choosing the cheap options include premature failure of the welds, improper fitment, poor airflow resulting in poor performance, premature failure of the pipe wall, and lack of backing by the manufacturer. They could last for years or last for minutes. It's a gamble.
With a company that has a reputation to uphold, you're dealing with good parts. I ordered my parts from RDP, so if dynosteve sells me something, it's got to live up to his standards. He's not special either. There are a ton of vendors just like him on here that won't sell you garbage, and that's why none of them carry parts that fail to meet basic standards. Talk to any Camaro5 vendor and find me someone who would eagerly sell you those headers over the cheapest ones they have in the warehouse.
