Everyone has their own opinion, A buddy of mine is running afr 205's and I'm running Patriot LS6 style and everything else on our cars is pretty much the same except our exhaust ,I have a magnaflow with cats and he has flowmaster with no cats and he has 14 more RWHP than I do. Myself, I wouldn't pay full price for AFR heads but for 500 dollars more I would think about it.

I would and did pay full price for the AFRs and already had patriots...I will post up the dyno graph when I am done tuning it. Nothing else was changed except the heads.
