People are iffy about obx in the honda and the 240sx scene. So I'd even be more iffy about putting on a MB. I doubt they even did any R&D. They are popular in the honda scene cos they usually copy a more reputable company's product. But I don't even know what they could've copied off of for the w204.

It is too cheap to be a good mercedes header.

the homie has these on his 203 same engine as ours the m272, they're kleemann copys he dynoed his car and got gains forgot what the exact numbers are but hes on the forum look for "karo" in the 203 section.... for 3 bills might be worth a try...

Definitely looks like a Kleeman replica

i would hold off if it's not high quality (304) stainless steel... For 1K more I would just invest on a Meisterchaft SUS GT exhaust

But the price is so tempting

Actually I've been contemplating these after warranty expires. Have actually heard good things about this brand from a friend who makes his living putting turbos and other performance tuning on mercedes. Reason why prices are so cheap is cause OBX is a huge company and builds tons of these (and other components) for many makes and models, thuse can bulk order raw material on the cheap. Also, made in asia so labor is cheaper as well. Quality is fairly decent.

That seals the deal for me lol . Once I get the extra cash I'm going for it .

I was thinking about getting these when they first came out, $300 for headers is a great deal! especially if your able to put them in yourself or have a freind who can do it.. I was quoted at $450 from a local tuner shop to install them. Only thing that stopped me is i was worried how the car would sound afterward.

i was looking into those too but i say to my self it is like upgrading my Honda. OBX is not of a great product and plus i think those headers will break. You know what we need a person to try this product out and do a write up. =)

If I were you, I would avoid SSAC, OBX, and APC altogether. Anything that I have gotten from them in the past has either terrible fitment issues, or is missing things that the factory or oem components have. Such as bolts on my girlfriends old honda to connect the header to the downpipe (OBX) and also the high flow cat my friend tried on his altima was poorly crimped and needed to be modified to fit.

Bottom line - if you want a simple plug and play solution and simple install, this is not what your looking for. If your looking for something you "could make work" for a good price, then these are perfect for you.
