Those look like their headers for the cars. The truck headers look like this.

Yes they are the car ones, just curious if anybody has got them on the truck ones yet.. The LPPs look really closely modeled after a pair of over seas made headers I have seen, esp with the standard long collector on them.. (NOT BASHING) just saying

Anyone notice that all the cheap stainless headers use a shiny steel whereas the expensive ones (ARH, Dynatech) use a dull stainless. The LPP's look very similar to OBX's. I think ARH said they can't even make a set for less than $1000. Anyone have any insight as to the quality difference? I was looking at those LPPs with the added merge collector, but I'd be looking at $500 + $300 = $800 and I would still have to deal with those bullshit slip joints (why can't anyone make a stupid slip fit that allows the use of a band clamp without interfering with the o2 bung )

dammn that was a bad rant lol

Yes I have def noticed this.. I have been talking to the guys alot at SW's and they don't know how LPP is offering a polished system, ESP made from the 321 stainless for that price, swear that they have to be made across the drink. They were like we can't touch that.. So I dunno what to think, considering they at LPP told me they were made here in the US.. Kinda makes me wonder thowe with all the fitment issues they have had.. HMMMM

Just because they say something doesn't mean it's true. Their headers look identical to OBX's in construction and I'll leave it at that.
