I've heard nothing but negatives from them. Spend a few more dollars and play it safe with something that lasts and makes respectable power.

obx is like the rota of car parts..they just mimic other manufacturer's designs and sell them cheaper

they aren't bad with simple products that aren't hard to screw up..but when it becomes more complicated (like lsd's for example) just throw that shit in the trash

do not buy that cat. I bought one of those and after having it on for only 4 months, the entire side cracked wide open. OBX is garbage, and i learned the hard way. I also had an OBX 2 piece header, and the gasket blew out 10 times. I finally had to get it welded solid.

Stay away man.
