Ebay M20 Headers

[kamotors]

Well I went ahead and bought some "alpina" headers from china. they are the HX racing headers and were only $165 shipped, I received them within 3 days which is really fast. The box was a little beaten up but the headers were in very good condition(clean welds), and the insides of the pipes are very clean. I'll update again on Monday when I install them.

Hmm, that looks pretty nice. I was thinking about either getting some of these ebay headers or the bavauto ones. Except the latter are like 4 times as much. Ahh monday! I need to fix my car and if I can do it cheap with these headers (if the fit is good) i just might - instead of sourcing another whole used down pipe/cat section.

I wanna see what the fitment is like, don't some of those ebay long tubes sit like two inches off the ground when installed? If these ones don't I will be buying a set fo sho.

[kamotors]

I hope they fit good. they are alpina copies so they design should be good.

These will tuck up in there like the stock exhaust. It's the real long tubes, like Stahl's that hangs down.

Would these work on an iX?
If these are legit, I might wanna buy this over the summer when I get some money.

Probably, you can get them all over the internet.

I know 3 people that run these headers. They look good, sound good, and the welds are decent. Definitely worth the $165 considering the alternative unless you are a brand name whore.
