That price reflects the headers and Y-pipe.

From what I've seen...ARH's are the best. And the best is never cheap.

I have to ask, but why can you get the 1 7/8 version for ~$1200 and these are almost 50% more?? Is it just because of the lower volume??? Is raw material price that much higher?? Harder to work with?? Combination??

Guys I am not bitchin or complaining about the price. For the select few that NEED this much exhaust, I see it as being completely worth it...

Stang's Bane, Yes, definitely more involved in producing 2" headers. Material costs are just a small part of it. Much of the additional price comes from the custom nature of these headers. With our merge collectors and Y-pipe merge customized for each application, there's additional labor involved. Also much of these headers needs to be assembled without the use of our jigs.

SS101, Give me a call for pricing 631-608-1986. I'll go over your combo and set you up with exactly what you need. Thanks.

2000NightRider, We get well over $2000.00 for a custom set of S/S headers (only) when built in-house. For racers looking to produce huge power the price of these systems is an absolute bargain.

I agree, thats the first thing i thought. Then i saw the price, and i'll just stick with my super low hanging SLPs.

2000Hawk, The price represents these race systems only. Our standard 1-3/4" and 1-7/8" systems are more in line with what you paid for those SLP's.

These systems are for high hp stroker combinations that run either N/A or with nitrous. Two inch and stepped race systems can be customized to handle between 600 to 1200hp.
