AR Headers or SuperMaxx headers
AR Headers or SuperMaxx headers I know both headers are very high quality, but i like the option that
Thunder Racing offers to delete the cats. As far as the performance
of each how much of a difference would the AR's be over the SuperMaxx's?
I loved my old FLP's and i believe that DynaTech made them for FLP.
Just want to hear from you header gurus. Thanks.

Oh i wanted to add that i'm not that worried about the 2.5" y-pipe.
Technically dual 2.5" pipes flow more than a single 3" pipe. So long story short is
that the 2.5" y-pipe probably has higher flow capabilities than our single
3" catbacks. But i'm willing to hear from people that run these headers.

Well then you just threw out the idea of removing the cats. If you have a sniffer your definetly not gonna pass without cats. Also why so stuck on these compared to say Kooks or QTP??

The reason being the AR headers are one of the best headers out there. They have
the high velocity style collectors, and the reason i like DynaTech is cause they are
made very well and theres the option to delete the cats. after i go to inspection i can go home and pull the cats. out.
I dont have any problem with the Kooks, but i have personal reasons for not getting
the QTP's.

I've had the SuperMAXX's on the car for a couple of years now, currently I have the cats in, but after the annual emission test I put in the straight through pipe. Very happy with the headers, simple to fit. Of course i cant compare them with others as these are the only ones I've fitted.

Only OBDI cars get the sniffer. Our cars don't. They just check under the car for cats with the mirror and plug the scanner into your OBDII port and check for codes. After that, you're done. No hood pops, no sniffer.
Well i go to the Woodbury inspection station and trust me they DO pop open
my hood when i had my WS6 and they ran the sniffer and the ODB2 port test. I dont know where you go, but let me know i would go there in a heartbeat.

inspectors see a sports car they go alittle crazy and check for everything.
Now i think of it...last year when i bought my 2002 Camaro SS i had to get
it inspected and they popped my hood, which really pisses me off, and they
did the emissions test and ofcourse the OBD2 test.
Dude you are all kinds of mixed up, you are concerned with a off road y pipe but want a y pipe with no cats.... an offroad y pipe is a y pipe with no cats, so what you are wanting IS an off road Y.
And OBD2 tests DO NOT use a sniffer only the OBD port, something is wrong with that, and you also stated you go to _____ place to get it done but have complaints.... why dont you just go to a different station then? And they are going to open the hood that is part of an inspectors job, they are supposed to look under the car for cats but most inspectors do not ( I manage and auto repair shop so I have seen what the inspectors do that I have employed and others ), so if you fail at one place on the visual inspection just go somewhere else.
As for your original question I would suggest ARH with off road Y. If you are real concerned with the cats get the catted Y, most likely its high flow cats that wont harm output by much if any.

I'll try Ancora again cause when i bought my 2002 WS6 back in 2001 i had
to get it inspected only cause i bought it new from a PA dealership and i argued with
the guy there cause he popped my hood on a brand new WS6. He was just curious
i guess but ever place i've taken my f-bodies they ran all the test, no matter where i go.
Unless they changed since last summer.

If you look at my original post i'm only asking the difference between the
AR headers the the slightly shorter DynaTechs. My original question was all i was looking to have answered. The post got alittle off track about y-pipes.
I'm only looking for the power difference between the 2 headers and a
sponsor answered my question and i'm going with DynaTechs. I agree the cats wont cost that much power. I was more concerned about the headers themselves.
