Question Jet Hot LT's or Hooker LT's?

I'm looking to buy one of these two and was just curious as to what HP gains were seen on these two types and what the price difference is???? Thanks!

get the new kooks. I just took off my Hookers. Hookers are great for stock motors. But i would still go with the kooks 1 3/4 for a stock motor.

I got the through Scoggin-Dicky. They are a sponsor on our site. You can also get them directly from Kooks i believe. I haven't even started the car with them yet so i don't know how much more power they will make over the hooker.

Between the Hooker and Jet Hot, I would get the Jet Hot. They are basically the same design as Hookers, but made a little better. They have thicker flanges, thicker wall pipes, and better welds. They are also coated inside and out, where the Hookers are only coated on the outside I believe.

I haven't seen the Kooks yet, but I can't imagine they would be that much different from the others. How are they different Turnin?

The difference is that the drivers side is a one piece, it doesn't have the slip in on the #1 cylinder, also they are offered in a stepped header.
