Most of the problems with CELs are related to the o2 sensor location. Most people put the none e-gas headers on e-gas cars....that's a no-no.

Okay, I was skeptical when I ordered these but was willing to take a $100.00 risk. I received the headers today and I have to say so far I am quite pleasantly surprised with them. I have seen several other headers that are available for the Boxster and these look equally well constructed as any of them. They are stainless, Tig welded and have a mirror-like finish. The flanges are 10mm thick with 1 5/8" tubes and a 2" collector. The inside tubes are also ported at the flange for smoother exhaust flow. I hope to have these installed and on the Dyno by the end of the week. I'll post any fitment issues and results when available.

I am genuinely interested in how loud they are with the top up, just the SS Dansk unit raises the interior noise a lot. I'd love the gutteral sound of headers and extra horses sometimes, however, calling attention to your car being exceptionally noisy can't be a good thing as far as avioding the pullover.

I purchased a similar "Chi-com" header for my Jeep Wrangler about 6 months ago for about $50. I haven't had any problems with it even after some off-road wheeling and could of runs on the beach. I suspect that many aftermarket products like this are made behind the "Yellow Curtan" anyway. I do have concerns about quality control. It is easy to make a weld look good even when it isn't. I'm not sure that I would do the same for a Porsche though. Just my opinion.

Any truth to this, do you think?

If you are really interested in the headers just ask if Top Speed makes them. If so they are the same as all the other ones on eBay......which are the same a board sponder, 'delubozparts' sells.......which are proven on the board by butt dynos and 3rd party dyno graphs.

The reason I brought up the CEL issue is the headers replace the existing cat/manifold which contains O2 sensors. I don't see how you could bypass the system (unlike the secondary cats) without disrupting the fore/aft sensors. Could someone please educate me on this?
