Default QTP, Hooker, or SLP LT Headers

I am looking into getting a new header/Y-pipe setup, anyone have opinions on which one i should go with? I have a 98 formula, thanks for input. Also, does the installation require you to pull the engine? Or can you do it without pulling the engine and is it difficult to do, i.e. an estimate of how long it should take, and do you need any kind of tuning? Thanks again,

i would say read up a little bit before you do anything. after you read yopu will find out to stay away from slp headers before they hand too low. next you will find out that installing qtp are fairly simple. then you will find you dont need a tune ,...good luck, you gonna love the headers no matter what you pick.

yeah you might wanna stay away from slp headers. its crazy some people love theirs, and mostly everybody doesnt like them. qtp are supposed to be the best header on the market, but all the headers as long as they are full lengths make about the same power. everbody is telling you to get qtp or kooks because of the quality and its stainless steel. but the bottom line is, all the longtubes make almost the same hp.. i ran hookers on my 2000 z28 and i was really happy with it.
