what dj said.

OBX are kinda hit and miss. so someone might have one that works well and lasts a lifetime, but someone else might get one that was made around the same time and the welds could crack within a month. just be careful and cross you fingers.

it doesnt rob your HP it just makes for less potential and adds dead weight.

i say go for it. my friend has an OBX header on his mazda protege5 and no problems and the welds are fine. It says to comes with a lifetime warranty so might as well go for it.
