Question longtube flowtech headers ?

I was wondering if the flowtech longtube headers are any good or has anyone everused them i know that mostly everyone has the bbk's the reason i ask for this specific brand is because my funds are pretty low rite now so i seen these at summit for $270 plus $110 for the x-pipe that goes with it here is the site... do you guys think its worth it, good deal or no ?

If you're worried about funds then I would look into the price of the install first..
Some people have been quoted above $500, obviously more then the actual part itself

That price is very attractive but after a quick google search, I found that the fitment and quality of these headers is pretty poor and low. You get what you pay for. I would say save up for another month or so and get something that fits nicely. BBK or MAC would do fine.
