Direct thru Mfgr or go through a vendor? I plan on replacing my headers here soon and have been torn on Kooks Vs ARH, going with cats this time and I was wondering if its cheaper to go through a parts vendor or right to the manufacturer? I'm pretty set on ARH as their Y pipe is better. Even tho I can do TD's down the road w the Kooks.
Last I heard, My buddy told me to go thru Maryland speed for the ARH. He always gets a good deal from them.

I'm going 1 3/4" ... and I have my reasons. Not really gonna get into it. The TSP LT's seem ..... dare I say, cheap.
I have old *** SLP headers now and have been on the car since 2004.. ...... 0_o I'd do duals, but trying to keep the costs down or i'd get the full Kooks setup. And I think they'd be a tad loud even with cats. The tone/volume of my exhaust is fighting with my stereo. Keeping my CB for now, or until I find a Hooker CB setup used and in decent shape.

^ I think they'd be a bit louder than what I'm looking for. I Think I'm aiming for a Hooker CB and maybe a cutout for some occasional noise.
I still have some maintenance things I have to do to my DD, so I can't blow my whole wad on the exhaust. Have a couple other small items to do to the Camaro too.
