whats the difference - Toyota Yaris Forums

Whats the difference between this one and dis one and finally this one other than there price because I see that $53 header and I want it with a $30 shipping about $80 not bad for a header.

looks the same to me...

kurokoma-kun · 07-23-2007, 04:54 PM

Difference I spotted was $190 one says "megan" and $50 one says "generic stainless steel" -- no idea what difference that makes, I was just proofreading

yeah, gotta watch that, cause sometimes people will post pictures of other product when they advertise theirs...pretty common thing I have run into. 53 bucks for a header kinda scares me, especially for stainless....you cant even buy a stainless muffler for 50 bucks...I have also found cheap headers are prone to cracks and leaks and fitment issues...so be ready for that.

Megan has 1 yr warranty while the other one you are throwing $80 down and if it breaks, it breaks.. then that makes the megan header $80 more expensive in the end! haha

Buy right the first time is what I tell my customers; it makes no sense to buy something then have to purchase it again since something breaks.

The two are exactly the same. Exactly. There is no structural difference between any of the three headers you linked to. All three contain this text:

CC, then what do you suppose is the reason for difference in price?

Maybe scratch and dent sale that Megan doesn't want their name on????

good answer

I would have never thought of that, but it makes sense.

I think it is just the fact that Megan provides things like customer service and support and a warranty. That costs money. Megan and Joe Schmo Racing both buy their header from the same Chinese mass producer. In fact, I'll bet this header has been whored in Japan to an extent that would make Jenna Jameson jealous.
