I love my kooks LT headers and O/R xpipe. They sound awesome with bassani mufflers.

I think the ARH might be a little steep on my pocket lol Im thinking now either slp, bassani or jba. Now if you go to lethalperformance.com and go under the slp headers they claim if you get there longtube and match it with there shorty midpipe that you can get gains of 30hp. Any truth behinde that?

Theres nothing hard about the install just very time consuming. And the little **** will irritate the hell out of you. But I dont see why anyone couldnt do this.

I think the install of the supercharger was harder then the headers.The hardest part of the install was reaching some of the screws.

ARH, Kooks, Dynatech, all top quality. androdz is correct, horsepower will be vitually identical, but the issue on our cars is fitment, and that's where the above mentioned brands excel over the others.

Ceramic would be better to keep underhood temps down, and stick with 1 5/8 primaries.
