Man is it loud, I love the sound.

Here's a vid of the open headers, I'll have to get one of with the glass pack on it. It sounds so good idling around the alley and when it decelerates. Can't wait to hear it when I merge onto the highway for the first time!!!

your truck sounds awesome

I would totally buy another one. Stainless, long tube, pretty close to an LCE header. I hear the DT's are the best cause they are Tri-Y but you pay over double for one. For under $200 you can't go wrong.


Thanks Jeff!! The vid doesn't really do that shot justice haha, it sounded mean in person with open headers. I rocked just straight pipes into a glass pack for a while but it got to me on the high way after a while. I put a Thrush welded (Flowmaster 40 knockoff) muffler on, just gotta fix a leak where the header bolts on, the manifold gasket they give you isn't the best quality so I would suggest replacing it before installation.

So who sells OBX headers? I'm looking to replace my stock manifold and even the official OBX site doesn't list them. I do see them on ebay, but who else stocks them?
