If you are not under warranty anymore then there is no need to stay stock. They will service your car just like any other car because it is you paying for it.

It is true that with a catless header you should get a CEL for cat efficiency too low (because you have none) but I have been running a Tomei UEL catless for a month now with no tune and haven't got a CEL of any kind.

Nice thanks! So would you recommend the tomei UEL over the OFH3 just based on overall build quality? tomei seems to be the best quality headers right up there with JDL. just scared the OFH is crappy quality compared to those brands.

From everything I've read is that the OFH v3 are good quality and work wonderfully with the OFT. But I chose to go with the Tomei because of how tried and true it is, also was available locally. Either would be a great choice in my opinion but I do prefer Tomei and JDL.

Ok so the OFH3 is up to par with Tomei and JDL. I like the OFH v3 because it comes with the over pipe already. It just really sucks because im torn between the 2. Do I go with tomei because it is a reputable brand and I know for sure I am getting a good quality product. or Go with the OFH v3 because it is specifically made for the OFT and has its own tune and come with overpipe already. but yeah your right, havent really heard any bad reviews about the OFH either about it being bad quality.
