With my old set up I had Mac's and loved them! I chose them because my car is lowered 2.5" and was very happy with them!

I'm happy with my RKsports, they are 1 3/4 primaries and are a copy of the AS&M headers. You can pick them up for $450 and they come with ceramic coating.

I have had great luck with SLPs and we have made well over 400RWHP on them

Next choice would be AS&M or RK Sports.

What ever you get have them coated It IS worth it!

FYI, I have my car lowered 2 inches. and I have long tubes. They tuck very nicely under the car. You'd be surprised if you look for the right set.........Just throwing that out there.
