I called OBX. Weird thing happened...this older sounding Asian lady answered the phone. Luckily my Mom is Asian, and I can understand thick accents. LOL!! She gave me a number to call for more specific info. Here is the number for you guys. (510)568-0198. I asked them if they were OBX. The guy said no. They are just resellers. Although he did tell me that there is a slight difference in the hatchback and sedan header that could cause fitment issues. He said that they should have the sedan header next month. The price for both is $195 and about $20 for shipping. He also said that they don't have a full exhaust system...yet. They are working on it. I also asked for dyno results. They have not tested the header. I'll be using my G-Tech Pro. The header is also off-road, meaning there is no cat. My plans are to just get a custom exhaust from the header back once the part is available.

Thought this may make you people happy...

What is the difference between the HB and the Sedan? I would like a full exhaust from the block to the butt. I don't want it to sound like a weed eater but a nice tone it is the family car. That kicked a mustang butt that was funny

So then we wouldn't be able to keep our cat if we install this header?

Right, if you still want to buy it after all those red flags, go to town.

I strongly discourage anyone to try to buy this and stick it on your Versa. You'll probably have fitment issues out the wazoo, even though they say it will fit, and you'll have warranty issues to boot.

Once again, I'm puzzled. The Versa is an entry level car with a 122 hp engine.

One could buy a stock 2005-06 Mustang GT for $15,000 and get 300 hp without making any mods.

Help me to understand buying a header for an entry level economy car.

its just to stand out among the pack, also if you have put mods on cars before its kind of hard to drop the habbit of making something your own, also some of these things help mpg(my favorite reason). what you should ask your self is why do you care what we do to our cars? cuz i could care less about what you do, you should try it some time, not caring, its fun

Or drop less then 2k to get a 240sx then another 3k on a turbo kit w/ all the little things...more if you plan on getting a sr20..so lets just say $6000 and burn a 05-06 Mustang GT. besides who would want to drive a ford.

i would like to see some more info, pictures of it actually mounted, and some dyno sheets before i buy something like that off ebay. i think someone should take the bullet and go for it, i would but like a lot of others, i don't have the cash to pay for it let alone fix something if damage is done to the car after installation

it says its only for the hatch, i wonder why. maybe cuz the sedan is longer? but couldn't you just take it to a muffler shop and have them cut it up and weld up wat is needed to fit it?
