Default header choice? SLP or Hooker

i am looking into getting some headers. i was thinking either SLP full length or the Hooker full length. let me know what you think the besty choice would be. also where i can get the best price. i work where we have a pit and there is about 5 feet of clearance under the car. about how long should i expect for instalation? and any comments on what plugs and wires to get? thanks

I've worked on both.I prefer Hookers over SLP's.The SLP's are a bitch to put on and the ground clearence sucks.

I was in the same dilemma as you on friday, I was torn between SLP's and Hookers. I made my decision and ordered the coated hookers, and off-road y, and hooker catback from Thunder Racing on Friday and they should be here tomorrow! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I know a lot of people with SLP's and a couple with hookers, everyone seems to like the pricepoint and easy installation of the hookers and seem to make a good RWHP gain like most long tube headers.

The SLP's make good power and torque as well. Personal preferense I think.

I'd go Hookers any day. SLP's equal length crap is no good.
