Id run OBD2 headers over them headers any day.
On my first swap I ran them with a magnaflow high flow cat and a flowmaster 40 series.
On my Second swap I ran OBD2 manifolds with the same setup as above.
The car sounded so much better, Actually cut down on the rasp a lot. I actually thought it pulled a little better too.
Not only that the OBD2 headers fit better and you dont have to worry about them hitting the sway if you have bigger sways or worry about them hitting the firewall..
I guess its just opinion..

I've got those exact headers sitting in my garage but I've decided not to install them. My OBD2 manifold/OBD2 mid/M3 muffler sounds great and I'm afraid of ruining the sound for a few horsepower. I'll ship them to you for less than the ebay price if you want them.

Hoveringuy, I might take you up on your offer.

What do the OBD2 manifolds cost roughly?

Market price is around $50-$70. You will also need to weld the air pump holes closed.
