OBX Headers with Cattman Catback?
I have just placed an order for the 3" Cattman cat back exhaust and the Cattman fast cat. My question is how well would this work with the OBX headers/Y-pipe? Has anyone tried this combination?

So with the Cattman 3" Cat Back, the Cattman Fast Cat, and the OBX headers (by V2 I'm assuming you mean THESE), I should have everything I need (aside from hangers, gaskets, etc.) to completely replace the factory exhaust?

Im in the market for headers, these OBX's are pretty affordable. Why are the Cattman headers like double the price of these? I mean I know Cattman has a outstanding rep, but is it just a brand difference or are these like lower quality (like ebay headers)

Cattman headers are the Cadillac of headers. He uses a slightly thicker stainless tubing and they are a better fit. I just finished installing the OBX headers last week and while they aren't perfect I think they are well worth the money and are still a quality product. The two main complaints are the O2 sensor bung on the rear collector is too close to the firewall and must be relocated (just have a muffler shop weld you a new bung 90 degrees around the tube). And the fitment is not always perfect and some have had to grind one of their engine mounts slightly to get it to clear (while it was a close call, I did not have this problem).
