Default Headers opinion

Yeah I know there is another thread but I don't think it gets much visability.

What do you all think of these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-2006-JE...06%26rk%3D1%26

Or should I spend the extra 75 on rusty's.

This is for my 01.

IMO. I would go with banks or borla or rustys not in that order eBay and exhaust parts usually translates to paper thin wall thickness cracking and replacement with something better

Buddy of mine ran one of those for about a month. Cracked at the mounting flange. It was quite cheaply made.

True but it is well worth the money. What would cost less a eBay header that will crack then replacing it with a good header. Or spending more and doing it right the first time?

For 00-01 if your wanting to retain the pre-cats, that's another 200. Turning into a lot of money for just wanting to get the oil pan off.
