obx sucks imo. i am very dissapointed with two obx products. those would be shiftknob, and pedals. if they can't design shit like that, how could i trust them with my header?? im sticking to HS, even if it cost a little, (ok, a lot) more. like myoung said, we should be loyal to the companies that have been with us all the way. plus its always nice to have the best!
obx headers even sux.. thats why im getting rid of mine and a hotshot is on the way.. and if you email them and say something is wrong, they will never respond, they only respond if you say you want to buy a header, first my egr didn't line up cuz i had a pre-cat and then the gasket blew, the bolts didn't fit.. so i will never buy anything from that company.. ill stick with hotshot

If you know what you're doing the obx header will fit fine. HS sends out the correct EGR pipes with all their headers. The egr fitting on the OBX is in the same as the HS. You can pick this piece at your local nissan dealer. As for the bolts go to a hardware store and buy engine bolts without flanges, $3. Everything will line up perfectly. Focuz is a great alternative to HS for half the price. Plus the primaries are paired the same as the HS unlike the pacesetter which really is the worst header for the 1.6.
I hate people dogging this header... for what you pay I have are no complaints... just gotta do a little more foot work.

heres the thing, i know what im doing and thats why i still got the retarded header on... took some time but its on... plus the obx header wont produce as much hp as the hotshot header and they are the worst people to deal with.. im not the only person that has had a problem and they dont return emails.. if they know the header wont fit up on certain models then they should at least mention that the egr wont fit up and you have to buy one from a specific year...

I would watch out for hmotorsports.com. i tried to purchase some headers from them and they took my money and didn't ship my headers. i'm so glad i got hotshot headers though. Don't buy it from them. I had to dispute the charge with them to get my money back.
you get what you pay for, if you want more power usually the better product will product more results, it would be really sweet if npm could get some headers and do the testing.. i hope it happens.. hopefully obx will actually respond to them.. unlike the rest of us..
