If I recall correctly, they are a longer-tube psuedo-tuned design with slightly larger primaries (the tubes are bigger around) and a better collector design (where all the tubes meet up)

Realistically, given the BETA's adversity to normally aspirated power, I'm not very sure they're gonna be worth the extra money over a good HVE unit.

i might advise against buying the HVE ones from SR....I ordered mine in June, and they never shipped them to me, they said something like "HVE has been slow in shipping the units" or some BS . Anyway, just giving fair warning.

SSautochrome has the OBX 4-1 header. I have it on my car and it is definitely worth the money.

I am running with no cat at the moment. Runs hard but the check engine light is on.

i've heard obx is sh*t. i have their shortshifter and strut bar (pointless). i'm happy with the shifter, but all the mods have advised against their headers. that's my two cents.
