Re: Borla Headers for 98 TJ - Need advice
I love how they compare their 'high quality manifold' to those 'other'
unnamed 'lower quality manifolds'.
Way to be specific.
Also, it's manufactured in China, but by an American company...so, as an
American, am I allowed to buy it? :)

Re: Borla Headers for 98 TJ - Need advice
Thanks Bill, I have followed this link before from your 'links' page,
however I'm leary on it for a few reasons:
1. I've seen that picture tacked onto multiple manifolds across the
internet, and on ebay with varying prices. I'm guessing there are
knockoffs of it.
2. I've heard from my local 4wd store that those manifolds are prone
to having the expansion areas blown. Of course this is the same shop
that offered to fix my old manifold.
3. I need to get it shipped to Canada, and that website apparently
doesn't want to do that. Also if I find a website that does ship to
Canada I can't be guaranteed that it's the same one since there is no
manufacturer or standard part # associated with it.

however I'm leary on it for a few reasons:
1. I've seen that picture tacked onto multiple manifolds across the
internet, and on ebay with varying prices. I'm guessing there are
knockoffs of it.
2. I've heard from my local 4wd store that those manifolds are prone
to having the expansion areas blown. Of course this is the same shop
that offered to fix my old manifold.
3. I need to get it shipped to Canada, and that website apparently
doesn't want to do that. Also if I find a website that does ship to
Canada I can't be guaranteed that it's the same one since there is no
manufacturer or standard part # associated with it.

Re: Borla Headers for 98 TJ - Need advice
Thanks Bill, I have followed this link before from your 'links' page,
however I'm leary on it for a few reasons:
1. I've seen that picture tacked onto multiple manifolds across the
internet, and on ebay with varying prices. I'm guessing there are
knockoffs of it.
2. I've heard from my local 4wd store that those manifolds are prone
to having the expansion areas blown. Of course this is the same shop
that offered to fix my old manifold.
3. I need to get it shipped to Canada, and that website apparently
doesn't want to do that. Also if I find a website that does ship to
Canada I can't be guaranteed that it's the same one since there is no
manufacturer or standard part # associated with it.
