For $500 bucks, it's not a huge hit to the wallet if they don't work out. If I were on a seriously strict budget, I would try them out, but it doesn't make much sense if we are driving new Z's around. The install will cost more than the actual headers, so it would be a DIY for most that buy it. There are used PPE headers I see floating around from time to time that are a couple hundred more dollars. I bought mine coated new from a private seller for $750. Used F.I headers run twice as much as these do new. OBX in general doesn't have the greatest track record, but I'm still not going to hate on anyone who tries them out. 1/3 the cost of the normal going rate for headers is a hell of a value.

Someone buy them so we can see the shortcuts they took compared to what F.I. is putting out. This would be a huge selling point for F.I. if they can pick these apart and detail the differences.
