so pretty much 100-300 for a megan header/megan knock off and gain 3-5hp.

or 1200+ for an amuse/toda header and gain 8-9 hp and have more bling?

reguardless, they all drop 10-15lbs off from the stock manifold.

i might just say f it and pick one up. gonna give it another couple weeks/month to see if anyone else jumps on this.

I spoke with a seller from Ebay via e-mail and I was told that Edge racing header come from the same factory as the megan. If you look @ some pics the header is identical. The dimensions are also identical. The JVT header from Gmoto is known to make over 20 hp on a M3.I realize they are diferent motors but 24 additional HP from a 3.0L I6 is impressive from such a well tuned motor.

Here is the OBX,DC and OEM header the OBX and DC are very similar in design. The DC header is known to not have much HP gain.




Im not saying Ebay header are any good, just pointing out the similarities.
