Where to get OBX headers

I have tried to search, Dont know it if it down or im that dumb. I am looking into headers and considering OBX. A guy is trying to sell me used stillen for 350 shipped with 10k miles on them. I read bad things about the stillen setup. So far good things about obx v2 I believe. Correct me if im wrong. Question is how can I tell if that are v2 on ebay or off ebay. Any sites that are trusted to sell the correct obx headers? Thank you in advance.

You have to shave down the cross member a bit. You don't need to relocate the o2, I just plug the rear two and only use the 2 main sensors. You also need to get simm.

Shaving down the cross member is not the best idea, just don't tighten all the bolts until the end and everything fits fine this has been confirmed by numerous members.

Im here! But I own hotshot.

To the OP, if you have the extra money to spare, get cattman and call it a day. Differenct in power is arguably non-existent between the two brands, but with cattman, you have an awsome guy that backs his product 100%, a higher quality product, no instalation issues, and in fact arguably easier instalation because of the 3 piece design. Also, minor things (that probably wont make a notable difference in power) such as, longer runners before the 3-1 collectors , a less extreme angle in the "loop" before the y pipe section, and also, true 2 1/2' piping after the collector in the Y pipe.

But this thread is not asking for opinions. So to the OP, if your doing all of this on a budget (like I am) dissregard what I wrote and get OBX. I will say one thing though, i've never had a smooth experience when installing with OBX's products.

Does that means the V2 can fit 00-01 models?
