Default BBk Header any good?

BBk headers and Y-pipe on sale at summit for $369.99 but they say they are chrome. Anybody have BBk headers? How is the power output, and fitment. I have also herd that 01-02 manifolds flow pretty well, just wondering if I should do the labor that comes with headers or spend my money somewhere else. I have just a lid and magnaflow CB on my 01 WS6 M6. Thanks for replies.

I am still very happy with the BBK LTs. Here is a link I posted up last year, lots of pics too.

These headers fit very good, no frame modding required, excellent ORY too.

No, not the ceramic coated ones. I got coated ones on my GTP & theyre not rusted, been on there over 2 yrs. I heard chrome ones will rust a lot faster.

I have BBk headers that are crome they fit very well. I also have the ORY and it worked well also. I am sure they will rust but haven't yet 6 months old. They are the cheaps That I have found that are LT and from a company with a back ground. just my two cents

Im very happy with my BBK headers, i got the ceramic coated ones. ORY has great ground clearance. you wont be disappointed if you get them but i would save up some more and get the ceramic ones for $499 shipped from LMPerformance (a sponsor on here).
