[QUOTE=Jason 98 TA;10050048]Ok ChocoTaco time to put your money where your mouth is. I have the headers & engine still sitting here. The engine dyno is open a few days next week. If you can guaran-damn-tee your 1 3/4" headers will make the same power as the 1 7/8" headers then come on down. I'm not discouraged by your opinion, I'm discouraged because you have no true data to backup the claims that you guran-damn-tee other than your eye dyno...
lol ya come on down drive from jersey to texas just for this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only test between header size that would hold any real weight would be their new 1 3/4 vs their 1 7/8.I think it's interesting how designs improve over the years but unless someone independent runs the test I don't think we will see much as there is to much to lose.

The thread's ALIVE!!!
The next step in to compare a 2" header primary VS the 1 7/8" primary to see if it again increases power without loosing much down low.
Nobody really ever talks about 2" primary headers... KOOKS makes them, they have 2" primaries all the way to the collector which is 3.5"

Flowtech is what I would consider bottom of the barrel. We had the chance to offer them in the same pricing group as Pacesetter, when we opened the first box and seen them, we immediately sent them back. Pacesetter has its advantages still and you can make really good power with them, our testing wasn't set out to slaughter them, rather just to compare them to see where they stand.
Pacesetter, Edelbrock, QTP, Kooks, ARH, all have their place and there becomes a point where personal preference and value takes over since many probably make within 4-5hp of each other. Some people like Starbucks coffee, some like Seattle's Best coffee, and many, many more will only get McDonalds coffee. In the end its still coffee.

I have to disagree...McDonalds coffee is by far "More bang for the buck" wake me up. I'm gonna need proven test from identical size cups to think otherwise.

See I'm very confused on what headers to even go with now I wanted arh and now I don't know what size to get 1/34 or 1/78 headers I heard that 1/78 will lose low end if you don't have a cam or heads and 1/34 will gain low end I'm so very confused. My car is a 1999 camaro ss a4 with bolt-ons Slp loud mouth Slp lid. Slp ram air. Black wing air filter. Smooth bellow and tb bypass. Potz pp tb. Ls6 intake and programmer what headers do I get 1/34 or 1/78 and how much will I gain with dyno tune. Any advice will be appreciated thanks guys
