Opinions on OFT header?

Bought an OFT UEL header because it was a good price, but now maybe rethinking it.
Looks good overall, but apparently cracked because it's been welded up by one of the flanges.
I'm not too worried about it.

Just curious about the overall opinion of the OFT header? Such as sound, power gains? etc?

Is it worth buying header wrap and fresh gaskets to throw on, or should I re-sell it and keep looking for a Borla or such UEL?

Car is 100% stock with exception of TRD intake and exhaust.
