No one pointed any direct fingers. But obviously you need to so you can feel good about yourself. If the shoe fits wear it.

Nothing like being the tool of the industry. Go ahead sling slanderous remarks all you want.

Unlike Cali. I don't sugar coat anything. Good or bad I'll say it like it is. But I won't bring your mom in to it.

Enjoy EBay or should I say , Kmart

Actually I already feel great about myself. Your comments were pretty direct btw. And actually i believe you began the slanderizing when you called me a plague. I like how you look down on the idea of saving money. I'm sorry we live in a market economy and I basically git the same thing as name brand for 1/3 of the price. Yea it sucks that hurts companies like hks etc but your an idiot if you think that the average consumer cares about that over getting a good deal.

No one ever called you out directly. If you like knock offs, so be it. You can be the coolest guy from eBay. The throne is yours.

I'm done talking about it. Enjoy your knock offs.

ha. Okay? Are we in 5th grade? Your older than me? Well my dad can beat up your dad. you are very immature and ignorant to be so old. and if you are the grandpa you say you are then I congratulate you on accomplishing very little during all your years. I think I would ask to be euthanized if i was 60 yrs old still driving a yaris

This has been fun but I'm afraid I'm finished with this conversation. And for the record never did I say that one should go out and buy knock offs over real deal. There's always risk involved and you get what you pay for. I was simply saying for those interested in saving a few bucks that I've had luck with my header

Wow you dont have to be a jerk and call people a plauge. This is a place for good ole moddin the cars we love. Your attitude on this site makes me completly under value your opinion on parts because your completly bias and rude to people that have different ideas about cars. What would jesus do... Not judge thats for sure.

I just asked a simple question. If I can't save money then why did I buy a $13,000 car. So what if it fails; I have the stock one and another car available.

I guess you can still buy it. I would think though if there was a better alternative and it really isn't that much more (I have found the DC sport ones for $275ish). in the long run you make better power, you know it will last, and you have a quality product if it doesn't last with support.

with the trouble to replace it, I would think you would only want to do it once.

all that being said, you could go for it. there are probably a lot of people that are running ebay headers out there.

Don't buy a yaris in the long run it will fail. Your better off with a rolls Royce.

haha... I forgot to post the pic friday...I leave for the weekend and come to this...


I got this for next to nothing when I bought a bunch of parts off a guy parting out his xb, otherwise I would have bought the DC right away.

That looks very similar to the standard one, but with bigger bores.
Lengths of the runners aren't even equal.
A good brand will bring better quality, but what really makes a difference in power is the design of the headers, not the branding.
All the ones on eBay are all fairly similar to each other.
Even the 4-1 and 4-2-1. Runners are still the same lengths.
