For a procharged t/a which should I keep dyna tech or kooks

I had one som t/a with kooks lt's, kooks ORY and borla exhaust and then I picked up another som t/a but this one is making 600 hp and is procharged. The previous owner had placed dynatech lt's and y pipe on there with the stock exhaust (gutted) and a cutout.

Since I am selling my som with the kooks I am wondering, should I swap out exhausts? I guess I am kinda attached to my kooks since i bought em and installed um less than 6.5 months ago. Every one says "kooks this kooks that" but, then i saw dyna tech's prices and they were super expensive so, I wondered..... hmmm could they be any better than mine?

Theyre both stainless steel, just hooked up to different y's and different exhausts.

Thanks for your help...

sell the kooks and put the borla on there hehe. from what a local shop told me the dynatechs are the best you can buy for the ls1 fbody, i think it was dynatech i could be wrong. anyway you wont notice a difference, if the kooks are in good condition you should be able to get some good money for them.

I honestly don't think it's going to make a difference. They both make great headers.

I would probley wind up swapping them. It would be a pain in the ***, but I would do it.

i've never seen dynatech headers, but i'm quite attached to my kooks. i'd take them to any car i had, except i'd probably get a stepped header or 1 7/8(kooks) for an FI car myself.

I wouldn't go through the effort. I have the Dynatechs and they're a very good setup. Kooks are good too....but you won't get any noticable performance gain from this switch. (not seat of the pants anyways.) Sell the Kooks and then you'd have $$ for more parts
