The OBX headers don't really exist. If you look at the picture you'll see those headers are either for a 4 or 8 cylinder.

Get the Hotshot headers. Yes they will replace your precats.

according to the application chart, it says that they do make one for the 00 and up model, you will see if you scroll down a little bit.
Also i think those headers in the pictures are for 4 cylinder engines

I know they list them. Perhaps I should have been more specific in my reply. This topic has come up many times. Several people have contacted OBX and have been told the headers don't exist. You can call to see if something has change but I suspect it hasn't.

Hotshot makes headers for the VQ35 but they should fit the VQ30.

Cattman originally made headers for the VQ30 and org member SR20DEN tested them in his 2002 Max and they fit.

What year Max do you have?
