Don't listen to Brian, he's just jaded cause he broke his SSA Headers

Some are good, some are bad, you take a bit of risk with SSA but for the most part they are good. IF you do get something thats bad, forget a refund and forget any support.

If you can buy a DP for 80$ then I'd kinda expect the welds to be half-assed and be blown after a few hard runs.

Im far from an expert on wedling, but those welds don't look kosher.
Plus that polish job looks shiety.

i got something simmilar, for a lil more, the welds are good, the quality is not perfect, but fitment is fine, the only prob i had is they threaded the egt bung wrong, and the studs for the o2 were alil too long so i needed to add washers, i got this as something temp. being that im prob. making a divourced dp for my car but untill then i need something cuz i snapped every bolt on the stock upper to lower dp when i was gutting the cat lol.... seriousely the price off all the materials now days its amazing that they sell this stuff so cheap, i think its fine, i would deff make a brace of get one of the ko ones tho.
