cheap header = cheap welds = cracked header = wasted moneys.
IMO dish out the extra $100 and get an armor coated pacesetter.
I have heard a lot of people get the Tsudo, which is probably the same one here, crack and leak shortly after the install.
The metal used is supposedly very thin too.
2003 Sunfire with 2 1/4 inch turbo muffler, 2 1/4 piping, 2 1/2 inch resonator, a 2 1/4 inch catalytic converter, 2 1/4 inch down-pipe, a ported LSJ manifold, E-bay strut brace, and an AEM true cold air intake NOPI edition.
That LOOKS just like the Tsudo. Unsure weather or not it is though. My Tsudo is a great looking header very strong welds and came with very warped flanges after a lot of grinding and copper rtv on the gaskets I have been leak free for a few months now, having mounts probably helps that but I have never heard any issues of the Tsudo's cracking just trouble with the gaskets. If that is a Tsudo that is a great price I paid like $175 for mind and they usually went for $200 or so. It being that cheap kind of worries me though, like it may be a tsudo header but a very poorly made one or something?
It looks just like my BBP heard I got from someone on eBay. I've had it on my cars for months now and NO problems whatsoever.
only 100 dollars? i spent like 400 on my dc sport ceremic header?

Catback Exhaust, Reveco 62mm Throttle Body --
The company is "Option Import" so no.
Go with a pacesetter, they're inexpensive and also sold on ebay.
