Blackhorse racing headers ?

So I found these on eBay, I did a google search and they have long tubes as well, wonder if anyone has heard of them before ? I wouldn’t mind doing the shortys for $100 if they are somewhat decent but for that price I’m not so sure

Why not get some Speed Engineering LT headers for a little bit more?

All long tube header designs are ‘off-road use only’ because you move the placement of the cats

They have "off-road" pipes also known as catless mid pipes. If you need cats then these headers may not be the ones for you.

Sure you can, but Speed Engineering doesn’t makes cats.

Hence the cheap up front cost.

If you have long tube headers without a tune you will eventually get a CEL. Some people make it a few months while others make it a few miles.

I already have a tune from JRE, I would do another tune when I add the headers. I have a Supercharger so I needed to have it tuned anyway. It sounds like once you get a tune you dont need therear O2 sensors anyway, I just dont want a CEL

Wow! I didn't realize that you could get more "budget" than Speed Engineering. But yeah, Speed Engineering seems to have a decent reputation. So I agree, why not go with those?

I'm interested in how good those $150 headers are though ... suspiciously inexpensive.
