You can find decent stuff on ebay all the time, just dont buy the "ebay" brand products.

if you can find an actual part, then get it, but like he said, don't buy an ebay brand, they're really tricky about it.

if its a 420a, yea sure...i would. but if its a gst or gsx, never! i say this because with the 420a's, those parts arnt going to matter because its not going to hurt the performance...with the 4g63t's it will hurt the flow of things.

well i mean once in a while you can find parts that are legitimate, and once in a while they will show receipts or proof that they are actually legit.

Ya..  Ebay isnt always bad.  Just stay away from the to good to be true things you find on there.  Im with him on that though, if its for a 420a motor which im guessing it is, since you referred to it as a header instead of manifold.

See what kind of reviews it gets and post a link on here

Exactly.  There are brand names sold on ebay all the time.  Vendors are seeing ebay as a "mainstream" selling location and some do sell there.  Seriously though, don't buy ebay brands and you'll be fine.  Ebay rule of thumb, if it's shiny don't buy it, lol.
