Default Re: New Hooker Headers

I have them:

Performance = good....couldn't ask for more

Coating = BAD!!!!! 6 months old and they are already burning off in places

If I were doing it again, I would get the uncoated version and have them Jet Hot coated. I really like how they perform and fit, I just am not happy with the coating. Some time I will have to remove mine and have them Jet Hoted.

i actually got mine from jet-hot. already coated and all, was like 540 shipped. they got their own headers, jet hot does, and ppl seem to be liking them as well and they are around $500 i think.

just give thunder racing a call and then they will send the uncoated ones to them, have them coated, then sent to you from jet hot. it cost about the same as regular ceramic coated hookers but with a better coating imo. you can get jet-hots headers, they are awesome quality but i stayed away from them because of their fitment issues.

everything from hitting the A-arm (which is supposed to be fixed now) to some people having them burning the heater box or line or something along those lines.
