I have QTP and if they had any decent kind of Quality Control I would've recommended them. Mine had a leak at one of the primaries due to an unfinished weld. Virginia Speed found and fixed it.

Best would be ARH or Kooks.

Bang for buck is Pacesetter.

I put a set of dynatechs on mine. I looked at some dyno numbers on here about a year ago and saw that they produced better numbers than the other (cant recall which one though).
Pros-
Easy Install
Nice welds and coating
very nice tone
Good dyno numbers
Cons-
I heard that some people have had a problem with leaking, although I havent experienced this yet. This is more of a neutral.
They dont come with collectors and they are about 100 bucks each for coated.

All in all im happy with my decision.

Best friend has had his QTP's for over 2 years now and loves them, just hates the Y-pipe. Clangs and clangs no matter what. I love their collectors. Very nice finish and that polished look is amazing.
If I EVER get enough cash, ARH's are my top choice, 2nd are the Kooks. If no cash is had soon, then deff LPP is my next choice. I don't doubt Pace's at all, but I am not a fan of coating, don't like the look or the other cons that come with them.

Dynatech SuperMAXX headers. The SuperMAXX LT headers went right in without any problems. Didn't have to notch the K-member or disconnect the steering linkage.

Ok noob question from a noob, LPP are they setup for EGR and AIR as well as include the O2 bungs? I am researching so when I finally get my LS1 in a month I will no which direction I am going, but I know I want to do headers and keep them smog legal. Or appear smog legal.

Also what do ARH headers usually run? either 1/34 or 17/8 primaries. I noticed there were no prices on their site, or I am just really dumb..

I love my hookers, i've bought several sets and put them on several cars. I've had them on my race car for over a year and they still look brand new. My SLP's fit ok, but the coating has peeled off over time on the Trans am, but they are also some of the first headers sold by SLP. I think they hurt my top end power a little, but make good low end. If I was getting another set i'd buy Hookers

i would go with lpp headers, they are a sponsor, good headers for the price and they are the cheapest stainless steel that you can buy

The headers are great but the Y-pipe kind of sucks its a two piece set up. I am going to get mine welded to hopefully stop the leaks.
