I would say hookers or pacesetters. I think the tech headers are crap. I don't think many if anyone one this site run techs headers.

Jet hot coated hookers or pacesetters. Flowtech are not very good quality from what i can remember from my mustang buddies from way back in the day. Flanges are too thin and warp.

i've been prettty happy with my flowtechs.

after 5yrs they are starting to rust pretty good. mostly just the merges on the bottom and the collectors.

one flange was slightly warped and needed 2 gaskets to seal it up. but fit was AMAZING.


but since the hookers are actually cheaper...go for them
