Ebay Headers

Any opinions on these headers?

S&H to New Zealand will be $99.99 via USPS Air Mail.

Although the price is good - these will hang MEGA low on your delsol. the fact that they are "b-series headers" means they need to be made to fit B18C which is a longer block - so yeah - would minimal ground clearance I am afraid....

Seems toooo cheap. I contacted the guy just to clarify he definately ships to NZ. Anyone know anything about this "Megan" brand?

Here's a link to their page

Edit: Yep, just like Bluetech said S&H to New Zealand will be $99.99 via USPS Air Mail. :wink:

just look like another chinese header with a different brand.

shouldnt really have any problems providing you run a flexi pipe.

they look REALLY good, but if your looking at paying close to $500 for them I would rather shop locally man and support local business. I would rather pay a little bit more and get some good TRR's from FBI to support them not some guy in the states and at least you know exactly what your buying and more importantly you can go back to them if they fail in any way. But yeah they do look good tho, you will also have to officially pay tax on it when it arrives but that depends a bit on what the supplier declares them as :wink:

as I say - they will hang down WAYYYY to low on your car and you will bash them to bits.

Quality doesn't even start to become an issue unles that fit right first!!

for the record TRR is made in taiwan also which proves taiwan products can be good quality it just depends on what price they are made to.

can do ya a deal on the same headers darryl brought if you want.
