Default Werks 2058... legit?

Almost everyone of these pipes I've seen says 'Werks Racing by: LM', this one says ' by: DB'

Just thought it was odd, and the stinger looks a bit different too. So what's the DB?








Edit-- Derp.... forgot pic

That's one that Ron at Werks will have to answer.
All my 2058 pipes in stock are made by LM ones.
They may have changed manufacturer recently, but not to my knowledge.
Wait on Ron for a definitive answer.

Got a Pic??

I know the stingers went thru an update for re-enforcement. Its kind of oval as it comes out of the pipe and comes to a circle at the end...
My 2013 and 2057 have them. But my 2058 is of the regular stinger style. But its a little crusty and I cant read it

If they are being made somewhere other than at LM then Ron will be the only one to know for sure.

That's good because I was wondering about the 3 vs 4 spring too. Hopefully Ron can chime in because I don't care where it was made as long as it is just a real 2058

I hear ya on that one. Wicked pipe !!
Would be pretty cheeky for someone to copy it and even go as far as putting the Werks logo on it..... But who knows these days.
LM might have gone bust in the Euro crisis (with Greece) a while back like a few other players.
Hopefully Ron will clear up any questions when he gets a spare half hour next week

Don't worry it's a legit 2058. The LM company just changed their name mid last year.

Newest werks 2058 pipe I bought used 3 manifold springs and the header size was nova size so a header swap is possible now.

It's been a long, long time since we sold the conical off-road headers! I think it was around 2006 that we did so it's highly unlikely any shop would still have them in stick. Best bet is probably going to be checking on E-bay.
