everybody swears by the qtp and kooks. im sure they are great quality headers. but why would you pay an extra 800 bucks for a set of headers over decent well proven performers like hookers, jet hots and even pacesetters for like a 5-8 hp difference. as long as you get a ceramic coated header youll be fine. blow that 800 bucks difference on some other mods. alot of people run qtp with gmmg and its like almost 2 grand for that. with that 2 grand you can get a set of heads and cam for that price. just go with hookers, jet hots , or pacesetters. im sure its not stainless steel like kooks or qtp but youll be happy with the mildly priced headers.

2 inch drop is too much for any headers. My car is lowered 1.25" and I have the QTPs and they're perfect.

yeah, i have QTP's, and unlike the people who have ceramic coated headers that WILL eventually rust and have to be replaced, mine wont. These are the only headers I will ever have to use, unless someday i seriously upgrade my power plant. They are magnificent. They also tuck up very nicely, but unfortunately it is the y-pipe or trueduals that you install as well, that will obstruct your ground clearance. I think you will have a hard time going any lower than 1.25 because of this... Either way, I swear by my QTP's, just make sure you get the car WAY high off the ground when you install them, cause you definetly need to!

If you want em, get em. If you get something else, knowing you really wanted the QTP's you will regrette it later. Do it the way you want the first time.
