Default flowtech vs. bbk headers

Simple question. Which would you rather have for unequal length shorty headers and why? BBK or Flowtech?

BBK I have them and I'm very satisfied,they just dropped right in my 95 stang and comparing them to the stock ones the port holes on the BBK headers were so much bigger.......My stang can finally breath!

flowtech ain't got sh*t on bbk, bbk comes with new gaskets and bolts, you get what you pay for, also get the equal length

I have Flow Tech, they have nice big openings and all, but man they look like sh#t. Paint all burnt off, rusted. Ive seen BBKs and they still look good after the years have passed. If I wouldto do it again, I would get BBK.

I have flowtechs and I like them, the paint burnt off them right away, but I took them off and repainted them and they look great and I have no issues...not bad for less than $150 or less(it was 4 years ago when I got mine) They also came with new bolts and gaskets.

People are hung up on names...whoever says they are crap, try them, then say so...I have heard a lot of people diss BBK
