Second Opinion Wanted Please!

Hey, Can someone (or multiple someones) give me a second opinion on this? I know nothing of quality welds and components in exhaust. Cheers

it looks ok from the outside, (the key to a good weld is in the prep under the weld, as well as a consistent and strong weld

just wait a lil longer and save up some more for a well known brand name exhaust so u wont have to worry about stuff like welds failing...

you can get that header for $230 or you can get a Hedmen or a Megan Racing for $201.74 or a DC for for like $441... I'd save up for the brand names.

So true, so true.

Brand names have research and development, as well.
