Default Bbk vs kooks

Ok so I'm starting my winter build I'm going for 450-500 hp looking for low 12 high 11 come spring. I'm trying to figure out if the extra 400+ dollars are worth it to get the kooks headrs. That money could be don't else where on my build so I continue to go back and forth. What is everyone's thought between the two,many hp gain diff??

You should check the gen 3 section not the gen 5. There's more info in there.

Can't go wrong with ARH or Kooks.

Let me know when you are ready, pm me for some pricing.

Thanks, Mike

We offer a nice setup for the LS1 cars. All of our exhaust is 304 stainless, with the exception of headers which are a coated 409 stainless. The only reason we go with 409 over 304 on the headers is due to the fact that we coat them as well.

Well for one you are comparing cheap budget headers to high quality badass kooks. Kooks are awesome fit great and are worth the money. If you are looking for budget headers id look at the speed engineering headers. BBKs look like mid lengths. Also this is in the wrong section.
