It's hard to say what is "the best" header on the market because that is a matter of opinion. What is the best may be the best performing, the best fitting, the best horsepower/dollar, the least expensive, etc. What I can tell you is QTP is one of the best value stainless headers out there as they are less money than other stainless brands and they are one of the best performing as they are the longest designed longtubes, are equal length and have merge collectors. Overall I'm happy with the headers themselves. It's just a shame their y-pipe isn't as good as it is aluminized and has poor ground clearance. If you don't mind having a custom y-pipe made, they're a good way to go.

American Racing Headers! I just put mine on, no fitment issues, no clearance issues and great quality. No modifying or alterations at all. Only situation I had, {I don't consider a problem} the band clamp on the end of the Y-pipe wouldn't hold the exhaust together. I just went off and got it welded. We probably didn't clamp it on correctly, I don't think it was the band clamp, I think it was us.

You can't go wrong with a hooker header setup they are a proved company with proven performance parts. I got em and love them the fit was perfect. I would recommend them to anyone. Just my 2 cents
