listed at 175+50 shipping to canada+40 customs but this was to Canada
and i bought it from ebay...only prob was no 02 sensor plug was included and no flex doughnut ring was included and the stock doughnut ring does NOT fit the OBX header so i bought a new 1 for $3 from local car parts store remember aswell if you plan on getting this header...getting ur stock header out is a BITCH!!!!beacause its welded onto a piece of tin attached to the block so i had to use a grinder and slice off that tin then after that everything went smooth! i went driving for 30 mins after it was installed to burn off the fumes and **** and i can hear a throatier sound! very happy with the OBX product!

i thought you said there was an o2 sensor plug? or are you talking about something else? cause it looks like there is one there? or do u mean like an actual plug? and not just the hole?

like an actual plug, do it its worth it plus better fuel efficiency and when ur pop ur hood its at the back of the head so its not ur average placement like 99.9% of every other car
i ended up just welding a plug in it

nah dude there are better solutions...
go to ur local auto store and find a threaded plug for fitment
my buddy is an auto guy and has a lil shop and said **** it lets weld it shut..
so thats the WORST case scenario...
canadian tire,lordco,any auto store has plugs that u can make fit
unless ur in the states than u dont have those stores i listed haha
