want to buy headers for my 2001 ssei

[alexcoqui]

neither zzp nor intense have headers available. so the only option available that I know are the ebay headers. there are two different vendors on ebay. do they sell the same product or is one better than the other? is there a better option for headers?

If you're being adventurous, the "pacesetter" style is a good start for a true dual exhaust system, I have had nothing but problems with their Y-pipe and everything after.
Otherwise the "speeddaddy" style are the go-to, but the crossover might need to be cut/welded to get them to fit just right. I think the crossover pipe where it fits into the rear header might have issues with leaking if you don't, you might need to get a band style exhaust coupler for that joint.

I have the Speed daddy look a likes from ebay. Fit was fine on my 97. Rear clamp going into collector is a pita. Hard to work the trans stick around the exhaust. Had problems with the seal at that junction. Could not get band clamp to work (too big). had to use old style clamp to make it work. Little bit of clearance issue from Rad. fans but spacers and little forward movement of Rad. gave me just enough space.
