Default PPC headers

i havent read about anyone running these headers, wondering if theres any advantage over other long tube set-ups, hp and tq gains, they are the most expensive ive seen yet, i think slp and flp are aroung 12-1300, these are around 1500 with the random tech cats, any info would be great

They are VERY pricey. At that kind of $$ , I'll buy the QTPs. I've been looking at the Kooks. They seem to be the best bang for the buck as far as stainless longtubes go.

PPC uses the same style as thunder and QTP i believe, which is based on Grotts.
id go for the kooks too...which more or less looks like the same style as the headers above.

The price is that high because of the Random Tech Cats in the y-pipe. Otherwise the price isn't high. More on par with everyone else's prices for the same stuff.

Keep in mind that the price for the PPC is for ceramic RT cats. Ceramic RT cats don't flow well at all (based on QTPs cat flow testing). It is the metallic RT's that are so good and that adds more $ to the cost of the PPC's.
