Default Anyone running Thunder Racing headers?

I am considering TR headers and wanted to know if anyone is running this setup. How much HP/TQ did you gain? If you are not running TR headers whats your recommendation? Also, how are Hooker LTs?

I am running the coated Thunder Racing headers and love them. I don't know exactly how much hp/tq I gained. But I think that on a stock displacement motor they're right up there with any other header.

The TR headers are definitely nicer than the Hookers IMO. The TR headers are nice and have straighter primaries then hooker/jethot. FWIW, I am running Jet-Hots and would still buy them again. They may not be the best header out there, but the price-value ratio cannot be beaten.

I have heard they are based off the Grott design, not for sure though. What do you guys think of QTP? I want the best performance gain no matter the price. I am looking at running these headers on an LS1 with GTP Stage 2 heads and a Comp cam 224/224 581/581 112 lsa. I'm looking for low 11's, we'll see.
