Pacesetters unless you have the money for the 1 7/8" ARH headers. I didn't at the time, will get them someday.

i had the old slp headers on my car and they were a pain, my car was lowered with slp headers and a ORY, and it was like walking on pins and needles driving anywhere, have they redesigned there headers. i know as far as looks they had a great finish on them and always stayed clean. never rusted either i was very suprised about that my car sit outside didnt have a garage.

WS6Store had a sale on JET HOT LTs in December, so a friend and I ordered a set each. We should have ordered our matching Y-Pipes at the same time. JET HOT is discontinuing their line of headers and Y-pipes and will be strictly coating. So in the past couple weeks my buddy and I have been bitting our nails hoping we get two of the last Y-pipes to bolt to our new headers. We have the headers on his 98 Z28 and they sound awesome, but I wouldn't go with JET HOT unless you plan to fab up true duals or a custom Y-pipe or go with TSP's X-pipe w/dumps, because you aren't going to find a JET HOT Y-Pipe to match.

This is a budget choice with ARH at the top and Pacesetters at the bottom

I would probably go with ARH. I've had pacesetters and QTP's, both great sets of headers. But from what i've seen ARH are simply AMAZING. However, one plus with the QTP's is they are polished so they look straight pimp.
