if i recall omey said those cheap headers aren't worth it... if i remember the super charger has to be taken off to get that on...so labor sounds expensive to put it on.... i think slammed did a sprinter header or bought one ..not sure he he had it installed yet , we are waiting on him for so photos or videos

Yeah I asked Omey about some headers on Ebay before but these are different ones. I may be wrong but these dont sound too cheap compared to the other ones that were on Ebay that were made in China. These say that there are all stainless steel madrel bent. And Omey said before thats what you want to look for when your getting exhaust parts. So I was just asking you more educated guys cause I dont really know much. Also, the Ebay store thats selling them looks pretty legit. They sell a lot performance parts for a lot of cars. Thanks :D

It is the same crappy design that Omey was trying to sell and that others have been marketing for quite a while.

That header just looks shitty! not even equal length exhaust runners, the collector flange doesnt line up with anything on the W202 by the looks of things either! Id say dont bother.

Im getting so close to installing soon! Ive been waiting on a band clamp for the past 3 months, and Im going to wrap my header in exhaust wrap. I should have all the parts I ordered by the end of this week. so install SOON!
and of course pics will come with the install.. and I still need vids of my car.
oh..and of course a dyno run to see what kind of gains it actually nets... to the wheels!

I think it was around $800.. maybe a lil more.. I got it used. if you were to buy one from supersprint new Im sure it would be well over $1000.
yeh Ill try n get some dyno footage as well!

This is what the Supersprint header looks like, in the last pic is where I had the collector modified to 2.5" to fit the rest of my custom exhaust:
