Weapon R SS Street Headers, Any real World Info?

Saw this on ebay and it looks really nice and especially for the price.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WEAPO...item45f1f60350

Since my "ebay header" cracked at the o2 sensor like someone elses did im in the market for a new header and this one looks really nice if it fits and work as it should.

Couldnt find any worthwhile info on this header anywhere.

You can't base your opinion of the header off that picture. I followed the link and have been trying in vain to find the correct picture. Who knows what you would actually get.

well thanks for the research and from the looks of that Ill just fork out the extra cash for the DC and call it a day, I will email the ebay seller and ask for a real photo to try and call BS on him.

the part number they have in that ebay listing is correct, though. I would ask about the picture before you buy.

I would buy this over the DC

The real picture does look better. Hopefully this one doesn't crack like the last one. Buying the DC in the first place instead of buying two different headers would have been cheaper.

ehh the first header was like 60 bucks and it was the megan knock off which was confirmed to be basically the exact same thing by another member in a side by side comparison.

Once that broke I figured I needed to try a different style.

I went to that Whip site, they add ripoff shipping.

So, we have:

1. Megan $179.95 shipped.

2. Weapon R $201.25 + $34.43 = $235.68 shipped.

3. DC Sports $259 shipped.


Here is the Weapon R:

that makes for a clear choice, what sort of gains differences are there between the dc and weapon r, both looks pretty nice but are a good bit different in design it seems.
