Default headers/exhaust

im deciding on buying the OBX race headers they sell on modernperformance.com. i was wondering if this is a good buy. and also if they are stainless steel, or aluminized. i figure they're most likely not ceramic since they're only in the $200 range, but it doesnt say on the website. also, what is a good site to find full exhaust systems and not just the outlet?or what would be a good header/exhaust combo if i get the OBX header. i have a 2000 es. thanks for any help

all right i got the headers put on!!! the car is pretty mech the same off the line but in the highr gears adn rpms it makes a huge diffrence!!!!
they were a bitch to install but no fab work!!! I decided to take it in tomarrow to get a new exhaust bent and better muffler!!! (its gunna be nice!!!)

the only problem i ran into is not the cel is on saying upstream cat falure... cause thier is not cat, but i think i will have the exhaust guy weld in a high flow!!!

And thats all!! i highly recomend headers to anyone looking for a upgrade!!!

With the 2000, if your light comes on. You can go to Howellautomotive and get a o2 sensor simulator to replace the down stream o2 sensor so your light does not come on like it did on mine.
