Kooks or QTP headers???? I was looking at redoing my exhaust and i was wondering which headers were prefered most and i was also wondering whether you guys would recommend just getting an off road y pipe or a custom x pipe. If any of you had any recommendations for places to order a custom x pipe. Any help would be great Thanks

both are great headers
qtp is selling their 1 3/4 with the high velocity merge collectors at a very nice price.
If only they would make the 1 7/8 with them right now

i went with kooks just because i heard of some ppl having fitment and clearance issues with QTP. i got the 1 3/4 in and they fit perfect but i know a guy that got the stepped ones from kooks and had some clearance issues. but no complaints from me
I would go with the off-road y. I've heard that you lose some torque with an x-pipe, so unless you are just going for the sound, i think y-pipe is the best bet. cheaper too.
I have kooks and my gains are in my sig. I love the kooks setup, I have the 1 3/4 headers and kooks catless y-pipe. GAINED an inch(at least) of ground clearance over STOCK exhaust. if you want pictures or whatever, dyno vids....etc I can mail/email you them on a cd or aim it to ya

I've got kooks with ory and couldn't be happier. I agree with ZL1Killa, prob gained about an inch of clearance over stock...they tuck hard! Anyways, I've heard great things about both, so it almost seems to be personal preference.
