they are not cheap but worth every penny if you want the best and IF you want to keep your car for a while, thats my personal opinion. might as well save the $$$ and get Kooks or ARH

here's another pic

I would also vote for the ARH's. That's what I'm gonna get. MPH Motorsports is a good place to get them (they are a sponsor here).

I already ordered my Kooks, but now that I have enough supporting info on the ARH headers, I think I would have been just as happy ordering them as they seem on equal ground and price as the Kooks.

Anyone have any factual info proving more power out of the ARH headers over the Kooks?

Well never mind then. I'm sure you will be just as happy with the Kooks also.

How much is MPH asking for them? Their online store says they don't carry them.

You'll have to the sponsor on here. There is more than one guy from MPH on here I think, but this is the guy that I talked to:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/member.php?u=92040.

That is the link to the guy I talked to. They price match, so if you find a cheaper place than what they are selling them for, they will honor that. They also do free shipping normally.


Not sig, sorry, I meant avitar.

I don't even remember where I got the Avatar. Thats one I didn't make though. I like it as well since I have both the Camaro and the Firebird.

Who else sells the ARH? If they are really a comparable price, and I can cancell my order of Kooks, (and they are in stock), then I might change my mind. I am getting my Kooks for $808 from EPP.

When they had them on the website at MPH, they were $830 with free shipping. I know that Byunspeed, Vengeance, WS6 Store.com, New Era, and BMR sell them. I had a thread on this not too long ago and people told me these places sell them. (They are all sponsors here BTW)

Thanks for the info. The only other thing that might throw a wrench into all of this is that I need them within about a week or so, and I know my buddy who just got them waited like a month before they arrived at his door.
