Default Roughly how much more power with Grotts over Jet Hot or Hooker LT's?

I just did a search and read posts on headers for about 45 mins. I guess the Jet-Hot LT's and ORY are the best for the money, while the QTP/PPC (Grott design) w/ ORY are the best for power, period.
My questions are these; roughly HOW much more power do you get for the extra $500? Is it throughout the powerband, or just up top?

I know things will vary depending on engine combos, but I'm just looking for estimates.

From what I learned, quite a bit more. i got them because I was told by ARE and Norris Motorsports that there the only ones for my motor to do it right. They told me the 1 7/8" are good for BIG motors like mine, I don't know about yours.
If you have the cash I would get them, they get nothing but WOW's.

Donīt forget that the QTPs are stainless steel.

I don't believe there will be any difference between a 1 3/4" Jet Hot and a 1 3/4" QTP on a 346" motor up top. The QTP might have a slightly smoother power band and maybe a little more down low.

The only reason you needed the QTP was because you have that huge motor, so you need the bigger primaries.
