    Hey guys, found some headers on ebay called "XBRacing" wonder if anyone knows anything about these, I dont want to spend money for togs or slp's and these are still like a hundred bucks cheaper than Pacesetters. Heres the link too if anyone cares to look. Thanks in advance, later!

    Let us know how they work out once you get them on. Hopefully you'll see a good difference in performance with them. I gotta work on getting me some.

    x2 on what Badaz said

    Well first of all it throws flags up when it is all japanese cars pictured and many Japanese letterings. Secondly it is ebay (I haven't had to much luck with it). And they ask you to rate them positive with 5 stars no matter what. Also I went through quite a few of their ratings they seem to be a good seller but a few are just slow shipping and I found one of the headers sold for a prix I will quote them.

    Headers are not coated as stated in description. Still can't beat the price. B-
    1997-2003 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 3.8L HEADER 1998 1999 2000 (#260330805054) = Page 9


    If I were to get them I would get them insured because they do offer a fitment issue where they offer full refund But I am interested because they are really cheap and I am sure there are other people who bought them but I don't have the time to go through them all lol Hope I helped

    Yes I noticed this also, the company is based out of california, and I looked at his feedback as well, seemed alright. and lastly on the site, I never saw it say anything about coated, but who knows, they are stainless so its all good in my book. just remember. headers are headers are headers. they all flow better than manifolds...

    Yeah I was planning to buy headers either way but if you get these and they work give me a shout because this would save me a pretty penny lol. Or are these the bday headers that are going to be in the box for awhile?

    haha, she'll think they are in the box lol, the moment I get em Ill try to get them on, but I will let you know. I know of one thing that needs to be changed on these because its the same as the pacesetter design. if you have email I can send you the pic of what it is. its the flange on the dp, it needs to be changed from the offset angle it comes at to a more "lined up" angle lol. the pic does a better job of explaining it.

    13.7!? HAHAHA! That's a good one!



    j/k Nick

    Anyway, I am anxious to get ahold of these headers and help you out with them Riley. If all looks good and it goes together well, I may consider a set for myself.
