Default Kooks & borlas

I am looking into getting a borla catback for my car, and was looking into Kooks headers, and thought it would be a good idea to get both done at the same time. Would this be a good matchup for optimum performance or are there even better matchups?

Thats good your going with cats, without there is going to be a lot of rasp. In my opinion its a really good set up and will flow really good. Mostly because of the plates, and its going to sound really nice as well. I think theres a couple of clips over at LS1Sounds.com.

thanks for the replies however, I've been looking into QTPs as well. I know on the FAQ they are both quality headers, and on LS1sounds, the QTP sounds better to me than the Kooks do. Would one respond better to Borlas any better than the other?

Kooks, cats and Corsa are a real nice combo too. Take a look at my pics to see how nice the headers tuck up. No banging either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
