Best bang for the buck is the Pacesetters. You can get the coated ones with an ORY from TSP for 500.

QTPs, minimal peak hp (5-6rwhp) over pacesetters LTs, but more hp and torque under the curve at lower rpms than pacesetters. Those high velocity merge collectors work some magic. $665 with ls1tech special from QTP, but an extra 300 for headers that will never rust(T309 stainless steel) and that will last the life of the car are worth it if you can afford it. If not, TSP's Y and Lts will work.
