[ONE_to_HATE]

i was looking into headers for the 4th gen 4.. and i came across obs on ebay.. so my questions are..

1) do these have catalytic converters?

2) OBX quality?

3) other inputs welcome

wow ur lucky to have found 5sfe headers
i remember bigbird's obx headers on his gen 3 V6....sounded and looked great....ive heard pretty good things about OBX stuff
the headers dont have a cat tho

OBX Racing Sports = ebay quality ... but you shouldnt really have problems with them, except for minor fitment issues here and there

you will need to get a cat

[bigbird]

OBX sucks when it comes to fitment, all i can really speak for are the V6 headers but they didnt fit on the front bank. htey did look good and except for that one spot hey fit really well and all the sensors hooked up well with no problems and tehre were no exhaust leaks. i have herd complaints around here about the 5sfe headers but like i said ive only delt with the V6 ones.

here, I found the thread: For Sale lots of Gen3 Custom Parts

great deal. I got mine for 300 not including the cat.

that sulfer smell is a bad cat, just replace the cat with OEM and skip the headers unless u want them for performance, which there isnt much.

the ripp mods headers are much better from what ive herd.

right here (slight WW):




but in all seriousness .... the cat would go after the DP/Flex-Pipe ... so you would have to hack off the piece after their test pipe or flex pipe or whatever

can the pre-cat be replaced w/out actually replacing the entire headers section? - its a known problem by yota on their service bulletins..but there's no fix for it except change gasoline types. Its caused by the 5s's low compression where unburnt gas makes it to the headers and cooks it.

hey whats up

ask fox prime because he had both both the obx and rippmods. I think he sold the rippmods and bought the obx header because he was getting a ce light.
