Drawbacks of generic exhaust headers?

My friend bought some "shitty" headers and his car does sound pretty crappy. I found some brand new headers for around 60 on ebay.
He's selling the header kit itself for 7. The shipping is enormous. I assume so that he doesn't have to refund all the money when people send shit back.
So anyways I'm wondering, what could go wrong with these headers? If I install them correctly what would the drawbacks be?

tmsix where could i find them online?
erm I mean offline.

Why would you buy these on line? Sure they were $20 cheaper, BUT you pay $50 shipping. And if they are wrong or not what you thought, now you are stuck with shipping again.

FMF Power Bomb Stainless Steel Header for 1985-2000 Honda XR600R


FMF Power Bomb Stainless Steel Header for 1985-2000 Honda XR600R


$249.19


. FMF Power Bomb Stainless Steel Header The redesigned PowerBomb is a four-stroke header that incorporates FMF's patented PowerBomb module at a precise location in the initial stage of the header. By positioning this 'Bomb' at a key point in the system increased performance and flow is achieved through the expansion and contraction of exhaust sonics through the system. Result is a flow increase of nearly 10%! The outer chamber in the Powerbomb allows the air to expand cool and ramp back up at a higher velocity. Additionally the PowerBomb is a 'pre-muffler' of sorts which helps to lower the bikes sound output by providing more sound absorbing surface area for the sound medium (exhaust gases). On some models you can choose between a moto or supercross version. The supercross version is designed for more low to mid-range power where the moto version is focused in the mid to upper RPM range. FMF Model # 040020 Fitment: 1985-1987 Honda XR600R 1991-1998 Honda XR600R 2000 Honda XR600R *Note: Actual product may slightly vary depending on make and model.
