QTPs, the last (and best) headers you'll ever need to buy.

If I was to do it over again I would go with Pacesetters too.

I was under the impression that Kooks had the market cornered.

Maybe among Corvettes but I still think the QTPs are the header of choice right now...their Tri Y C5 long tubes look awesome too.

NO, QTPs are the best!

Truth is they're both great stainless header systems...I just prefer the better Y pipe merge of the QTPs and also the ease of buying headers, better flowing Y pipe (or even a Y pipe with cut outs already installed on it!
