OBX or SSAutoChrome headers? (HotShot knockoffs?!)
OBX or SSAutoChrome headers? (HotShot knockoffs?!)
Ok, I've read the header FAQ and searched...are these the headers that are the HotShot knockoffs? (also referred to as second-gen. SSAutoChrome or OBX headers)
Can anyone post a photo of the HotShot headers?

These are what the OBX headers i got from Psituning.ca last year look like. Dont know if this helps you or not.

Yes, they are HotShot knockoffs. SSAutochrome to be precise.mike_moss wrote:are these the headers that are the HotShot knockoffs?

OBX or SSAutoChrome headers? (HotShot knockoffs?!)
I just bought a set of OBX headers from MX6.com and a ATX DE ECU for 190.00 US. Should be good regardless of whether it's OBX or a knockoff...good price.

From what i have seen the OBX ones measure 1 1/2 Primaries, and the SS-Autochrome ones measure a 1 5/8 Primaries.
I have tried, and heard almost all headers on our engines. The Pacesetter ones make the most HP by far, but sound will suffice a lil. And now i currently have the SS Autochrome ones and the sound is sweet, but i don't feel like they give my car added power.

My set that i received fit just fine, other than the fact that it didn't come with flex pipe. The only fitment issue i had was the front 02 hits the clutch slave cylinder. On an Automatic there was no fitment issues. Since i had them on both.Interesting... can you comment on the fit issues that i've heard about the pace headers?

i have the streetimports headers (http://www.psituning.ca/store/product_i ... cts_id/152)
i love them, i had pacesetters but they were such poor quality and fitment it was pathetic. i noticed an increase in power from mid to upper rpms and the fitment was perfect with the obx ones.
