Caution about EBAY Headers!

[trd4life]

So i get my EBay headers today and open up the package to look at everything. They looked good until i realize theres no bung on the rear header for the 02 sensor to screw into. The EGR flange is there but the 02 sensor bung is not here. Kind of a scam considering is says bolt on installation.

SO, for those of you that ordered these remember when you go to have them installed at the exhaust shop they are going to have weld on a bung onto the rear header, increasing you install costs.

I emailed the seller and told him he's a piece of s h i t and i want a discount on the headers cause i am going to have to modify these to work on my car.

Using them as a mock up for turbo pipes? I guess I never noticed that was missing, I'm going to check mine now.

i bought them honestly cause i was curious how they looked in person. Yes i am using them for a turbo setup.

Let me know if yours are also missing the 02 bung

looking at the ebay pic it looks like the rear o2 sensor bung is on the y pipe it's self

It seems that they intended the o2 bung to be the one thats on the y-pipe. The side that connects to bank one has a bung on it, I assume they put it there. Correct me if Im wrong, the stock y has no bung in it so this must be how they intended it to work.

I got mine from this compnay on EBAY, apparently diff. than the ones you guys are looking at which i can see from the pic DOES have a second bung on the y pipe. Look at this pic from wherei got mine no bung.

If that's the one you bought, the guy said they were made in China. The other ebay headers I learned are made in Taiwan.

The set I bought were the second or third set of ebay headers that were ever on there. I can't believe yours doesnt have the o2 bung on the y-pipe or anywhere for that matter. Thats ridiculous....

God damn it i bought them also got them on wednesday and didnt even notice untill i read this post.. o well i figured it was too good to be true for 300 bucks shipped.

yeah i dident notice ether tell i saw this. It cant be that hard to weld an o2 bung on you can get one at any parts store. Alls you would need is to find some one to weld it on.

It is easy I have done many for custom exhasut systems and I have no training and cheap equipment.

LOL!

Bring it to a muffler shop, if they don't have it they should be able to order it.

HEaders for 260 shipped and all you need to do is weld on a bung? and now we have the Dat pipe... WTF, I own 2 solaras over a year and a half and we got like headlgiths or somethign now grilles and all this jazz. You know the market is opening up for it as a bigger tuning platform, this crap is going to start pouring in with any luck fr you guys. As long as the welds are good on them, if all you have to do is weld on a location for the O2 sensor to get a pair of headers for the car... that's sick!
