QTP's, eh??
I used SLP LT's over a year with a heads/cam setup. It's not that they're awful- I just had the money and time to swap them out and saw some gains as a result. Don't sweat it.

SLP just doesn't make a top notch header system. Thats all there is to it. I'm not saying you're going to hell if you get them, you just may not get all the hp you could from your car if you do purchase them, not to mention the other negatives that accompany those headers.
I'm not saying there great, check my 1st post. I basically said DON'T get SLP.

But on a basic bolt on car, I struggle to beleive there is much odds between most of them.

Sure up the CR, cam swap or FI and it's a totally different ball game. But arn't most things in the tuning world.
