Question Headers

I'm picking up my 2000 ws6 this weekend, I already bought a lid now I'm in the market for some LT's and catback exhaust. I think I'm going to go with Corsa exhaust, and I was thinking jet hot headers...are those any good? What's the difference between those and the hooker LT's? Also what else will I need besides an ORY. Any help is GREATLY appreciated, I'm new at all of this. Thanks guys ~Rachael

The jet hots are a great header. Theres really no difference in design between hooker and jet hot. If I may suggest pacesetters though, Great quality and a little cheaper also. If you get an ORY your going to need O2 simulaters also. These can be picked up at any of the sponsers of the right. Also corsa is a great sounding exhaust system and the tips look GREAT but the mufflers are known to blow out causing them to rattle. If your looking for something that is quiet but sounds good at WOT I would go for the Hooker or the SLP Dual/Dual.

The jet hots use thicker flanges and also thicker tubes. The oxygen sensors are on the inside. Personally I like the coating on the jethots better. It seems like the jethots have alittle more shine to them. I have hookers which I like. Both are excellant headers.
