Any decent headers out there?

[e30slidewayz]

I've been looking for a decent set of headers that isn't going to set me back a grand. I've looked at the cheapbay headers and have no idea on the quality or fitment and would rather stay away from a no-name brand. I've seen that IE has a set that aren't that expensive for $275 but they're sold out apparently. Any other decent headers out there? Quick notes on the setup... extensive head work, I'll most likely be getting a m30 MAF conversion, and supersprint catback. Exhaust mani, midpipe, and cats are all stock. Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks.

MSDS headers.

These are mine with some VHT Flame Proof. They come with down pipes as well.

I'm assuming the down pipes have spots for the O2 sensors?

Any other companies with good quality headers?

I am running eBay headers... despite what people say about them they aren't bad. The only problems I had with them were the X pipe they supplied didn't even fit their own headers, so I had to take it to get welded. One of the tubes came too close to the stud on the head so I couldn't get a nut on there. Other than that they are fine, no drilling or slotting of the holes required as other people will say is necessary.

I'd like to find a set of long tube headers, hard to find any that aren't no name or that cost a G.

Bev auto long headers?

[e30slidewayz]

Seen those, hoping to get off a little cheaper. More than likely going to go with the Top Speed Pro1 set. Apparently they're the better of the ebay headers out there.

Is this for a m30 engine? You mention m30 MAF conversion but I think some people in the thread are assuming you have an m20.

He probably meant AFM

[e30slidewayz]

Yea, it's an M20; sorry for the confusion. Actually going with a Miller MAF conversion.

stahl makes a nice set of long tubes, we put on my brothers car. Great fit and awesome sound above 4g, he bought them used on ebay for $300, and yes they are actually stahl headers complete with serial number. We called stahl and verified that the serial number was real before purchasing them.

The guys who race PRO3 in this area all say the ebay headers are the best. They all say they make the most power of any headers, including RD, Stahl, whatever.

that's funny considering they're copies of supersprint, stahl and bavauto.

Yeah, whatever, it is what the guys who spend $10K on a stock M20 rebuild say, IDGAF. I say do headers only because they sound sexy, it isn't like you are gonna gain 40 HP, right?
