That's how I feel. I second guessed myeself and went with the SSW because I thought I would spend the extra money for a superior product.

 

It's a common misconception that more $ = better product. OBX headers are every bit as quality a header than other SS headers. It's just an outdated design. But it's only $500, so you gotta deal with the downfalls to save $800.

 

They say hind sight is 20/20.. if i had to do this over again I would have gone with dynatech headers/cats and kep the stock cat back with just a different muffler welded in

 

I am buying some pacesetters this weekend and doing a full 3" dual set-up and be done with it.

 

I'm jealous of you guys that don't have to deal with salt and that calcium crap they spray on the roads

 

at least you don't have 100+ degree summers

 

haha that is for sure

 

Man, I'm sorry to hear that you had such problems with your SW's, mine have been awesome. No problems with the cats, but I'm not boosted. They were tight on the pass side framerail but that was easily remedied. I had great communication with them back when I installed mine too...maybe because I was test fitting them and all. It's funny though, after I reported back to them that they basically will fit on a 99, they never updated their website to say that they fit more than 03+. Maybe because they require EGR and possibly AIR or something.

 

I am amazed that I am having such issues. I though a company goes through the effort to tig weld 304ss would also make a great fitting product and have good customer relations too

 

damn thats sucks man....whats the primary and collector sizes on the ssw?
