Header project scrapped

Well, turns out that my little plan to sell the OBX header turned into a waste of time. The darn things don't fit properly, no wonder why no one else ever bought them.

So the next question is do you guys even want another header for the Maxima? Are there enough of you out there that would actually make the plunge and buy a set of headers and spend the 6-12 hrs to install them?

I see it as there being only two real options out there for a headers, one is over priced by a large margin and the other performs well, but the fitment is questionable.

When I think about the costs to develop a header it just freaking scares the crap out of me. I spent over 3 times what I thought I would spend to develop our 2.5 Altima exhaust, I just can't wait to see what a header would end up costing.

Anyhow, I'm not completely giving up on the header idea, if you guys would post some of your thoughts on the subject I'd appreciate it.

Regards,
Bryan

First issue for me is fitment second is price. I've heard too many problems with the existing headers to want to invest blindly and have to have someone else do the work.

Second for me is price. While the current header options are okay, price is always going to be an issue.

Thanks for the effort.
