These are probably a good deal for someone who does not want to run cats and AIR. After reviewing the install posts on these, it looks like the AIR flanges are for 01-04 only, so if you're a 97-00, you'll have to block them off, change to a later model AIR, and/or get it programmed out.
Other buyers of the OBX headers noted that the kits did not come with any exhaust clamps, header flange hardware, or O2 extensions.
You don't have to spend $1000 more for a similar setup(no cats). LG Streets are only $995 complete...all hardware included.

The air injection issue that was mentioned. Not a result of these being cheap just that they are made for '01-'04's. Also, the starter needed to be dropped to get the right one in. Dip stick alteration was necessary as well.

Would I be correct in assuming that these would bolt right up to an 02Z?
Approx. time to install? Anything special I should know? Seems like a pretty good bang for your buck......

Anyone have a pic of that hole they had to cut. I'd really hate to have to cut into my thick aluminum tunnel plate. 
Not sure why it is so hard to just change the angle of the o2 sensor bung enough to clear the tunnel..

02 senser simulators?
I am ordering these OBX headers and have a question. These headers have resonators in place of cataletic converters. There has been some discussion about having to buy 02 senser extensions. Don't we need 02 senser simulators rather than extensions? Please advise. Help with source?
Thanks for helping.

Would the LG tunnel plate with the holes in it not have the 02 issue? ie do the holes line up with the 02's?
