LPP are the new, revised version of the XS headers. Do a search on them and you will see what I am talking about.
Basically a stainless steel header and Y-pipe combo for close to half the other brands.

No they are nothing compared to the aution site headers from what I have read on the forums. They are pretty much like a knock off header yes ( the xs ones) but they appear to have been made with superior craftmanship and materials. I have seen them in person and they look great but I personally do not have them. I have also seen the auction site ones as well and would stay clear from those.

We're doing an install on a friend's firehawk of Ebay Stainless LT headers. I've seen them and they don't look bad at ALL. Yeah the driver side is angled up alittle but we'll see how fitment and everythin is. Aslong as it perform's he can careless. He spent the rest of the money he saved by going with these LT's on a wet kit.

I am waiting anxiously for these headers. I'll probably grab a set if they can keep the price at what it was before. The new y-pipe looks pretty good, I definitely want to see some installed/ground clearance pics before I take the plunge and order.

A long time ago they said the price would be pretty close. Hopefully they havent strayed too much from that.
I will be one of the first to grab a set and dyno them. My plans are !air/egr, LS6 intake and P/P TB, so hopefully it will be a pretty good comparison to other bolt-on cars.

im sure they use a different type of SS. some SS will become brittle after time and crack. you get what you pay for.

so far so good with mine... they use a higher grade stainless, anyone who's actually had experience can attest to this as well... I've had a friend who works in metallurgy and even he was impressed and I believe bought a set for himself

not everything is "you get what you pay for" these days... IE currently running/locked Cutout thread

just sayin
