SLP's were on the car when I got it. No clearance issues with them. Otherwise Kooks are great headers with little to no clearance issues.

Dont cheap out and get the pacesetters, its worth the extra money for stainless.

My kooks rub the steering ever so slightly in the right conditions even after sliding the rack over. Maybe because they are 1-7/8s at that point instead 1-3/4.

Probably I haven't seen the 7/8 yet on a car. the 3/4 work fine from what I have seen. Again, I usually dont buy SLP, but their headers are fine on my car with no clearance issues.

I have slp longtubes along with their cats. Very price friendly, and even though it was rumored the steering rack did not have to come out with slp's, there was no way around it. Steering rack removal is not hard at all. The only snag I ran into was one of my friends turning my steering wheel while the rack was out and broke the clockspring.
