as much **** you have to do to install headers, I wouldn't go cheap. It would be a ***** to have to do everything again because the "headers" that got installed cracked.

Headers will be $$$ to install if you don't do it yourself so, I would tend to stay away from eBay parts. Not to say that these would not hold up but, you are taking a chance with issues such as cracking, bad fitment, etc.. It is your money so, give it a shot if you so decide. Let us know how they hold up.

MR_X and teh215 are on-target.

Cheap test pipes are fine. If they last 20,000 miles, then crack, you just get another set.

Cheap headers can be a major headache. If they last 20,000 miles, then crack, you do not want to be installing headers again.

ill say it once, HEEEEEEELLLL NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I use to buy parts for my G on ebay, now i switched them all out, and replace it with all quality brand name products. Plus selling your old parts from ebay will get you low-balled. I had to let my headers go for $50 bucs, and no more than that

Thats $240 you could put toward like a plenum spacer or a decent set of test pipes. IMO headers aren't worth the trouble of installing them or the $$ if you don't want to do it yourself, esp if you plan on going FI one day.
