Anybody dynoed ebay headers?

Anybody dynoed ebay headers?

I know the topic of headers has been done to death but I was just wondering has there been anyone on here that actually dynoed the ebay headers on their camry/solara?

BBQbob has, i guess its proven to be effective, so has ASG14....and a few others.


Its basically a better version of the JPP setup in my opinion.

JPP setup was mild steel with coating, the ebay ones are SS, with uber nice welds.

headers are headers, but the way there made is what you have to consider, obx are of great quality for the price, if you buy some cheapies they'll probobally crack, and may not fit rite, so spend the extra $ and get the obx.................... :drinking:

The obx are different from the ebay headers. OBX have been dynoed to great success.

JPP's have been all stainless, ceramic coated for a while now.

JPP headers are indeed nice. i have purchased a couple sets a while back when there were no other headers available.

$350 VS $1600 Hmm let me think about that for a second... Ok i am going with the OBX for $350, plus $250 for SwainTech to cermaic coat them.

I think one person dyno'ed them a few years ago, but had to work out fitment issues first. IIRC it was the y-pipe that wouldn't line up right
