Is anyone familiar with these headers? What sort of gains would one see with these?

If they are good headers that sure is a good price...

TemjinX2

the not on the obx website. They have a ok reputation in the honda world. Maybe someone should email obx and see if they really make headers for the mercedes.

OBX is a knockoff brand with less than average quality.

It would concern me that when I google for "OBX Header" the #3 result is --

OBX header sucks ***. - Honda-Tech

Forum post full of people saying how crappy they are. There's a couple of positive reviews... Not enough for me to be the guinnea pig.

lol...i know some of there stuff is hit or miss.

At that price even if they suck you can use them as bookends or artwork on the coffee table.

I was looking for something to try my "prescription" on

W203Ramos

man....that's tempting.....

DarkXerox

They can't be worse than the stock C320 headers right?

TemjinX2

true anything would be better then the log style headers, but i think the greatest concern is the fitment.

SilverBulletAMG

And all of those welds. If done poorly that could be a problem real quick. At that price though....

M-bENZ

Dont even think to buy that...they are crap. I used to have that brand on my honda way back then...

meh, on a car like a supra, where changing the manifold/header is a 20 minute job, its ok to buy a crappy product and have it rewelded when it fails (and it will). but on a c32, like most other v6's, its a huge pain in the *** to install/reinstall these. if this doesnt concern you, be my guest...

Please dont put crap parts on AMG.

NitrogenBalance

Looks like they make them for the 208 CLK also..

Log style manifold that I swear I have seen here before in stainless. I think AMS, VRP, and evosport have done this with decent results and identical design.

Those C32 headers could be a can o worms if welds start failing. Too bad as 299.00 is great.

I wouldn't put those on my car if you gave them to me for free. Poor quality metal. I have seen crap headers first hand, and when they burn holes in the material and f- up other things, its a sad case...

Stick with quality parts on the AMG.

When it comes to mod, you are at your own risk. If you read further down to "Vette" forum, there was a long debate. A lot of people are happy to have it on their Vette for couple years already. So is it so early to judge? I would put one on mine if I don't already have LET one Serious that design is better than mine. As advertisement, they are stainless steel, but yes, it depends on the welding quality. Don't a lot of you complain about the welding problem on VPR headers "made from USA"?

I am also anti to chinese mades, but tell me what are not made from China nowaday? I run my pulleys "made from china" for more or less than a year. A lot of you also do right?

maybe if someone built headers for the slk32 i could buy some!

ZAHANMA

ditto... well i already know the answer to that... not enough room for LongTubes which is the only header I would put on mine. I think Eurocharged does in fact do shorty headers for the SLK32 (don't quote me one that) and they also have shorties and LT's for the C32...IIRC

SilverBulletAMG

Everyone that has sold shorty headers on the forums, and I do mean everyone (minus Kleeman anyway) has had some serious weld and QC issues. I don't even recommend headers for the 32 anymore. If I didn't already have mine on, I wouldn't run afteremarket.

Lenin

Would you put the new Eurocharged shorty headers in the same boat?

320 dreamer

the length of the slk32 headers are sort of like a mid pipe. longer than the c32 shorties but not as long as the lt's. they are the same as the srt-6 headers.
