For the last time, I got the SLPs with the matching Catted X-pipe, very happy except with ground clearance, not an issue for me as I don't plan on lowering. I got T302 stainless ceramic coated SLPs for $599 , X-pipe for $239 , installed for $350 , so very economical and 1.75" primaries, perfect for supercharging (next mod) , it all depends on what you want to do with the car later on I guess, I don't see the sense in spending more than $600 for the headers themselves.

My 2 cents, Hooker LTs and X, no cats.Finally got mine installed, sounds like a beast, runs like one too.

I'm telling you straight up by American Racing's longtube headers, I have them with my Borla's and I think I have the most amazing sounding exhaust in the world. Also on top of that probably the highest quality headers on the market as they are full-length(or true longtubes)headers unlike Kooks.

Many people go on their quest for a perfect exhaust and I just happened to get it right the first time.

I went with ARH 1.75" primaries with catted X pipe thinking about a supercharger down the road. ARH has an H pipe available now which I've not heard yet. I have a video clip on the dynoand considering theexhaust had hoses on it directing the noise outside it still sounded awesome with Borla stingers out back! Do yourself a favor and don't chince onthe long tubes you select. They are by no means all created equal. Sometimes Ithink to myself,ifthere was a nuclear war my ARH system would probably still remain intact. That's how strong they're built.
