Guys, I honestly don't see them going any lower than $499 on those headers, but I could be wrong. We couldn't keep them on the shelf from our last stocking order at $499, so any cheaper will just tick off more customers when they are out of stock again. If it does happen though, it'll be posted all over the forum.

Which y pipe would you recommend with these headers on a 550 (ISH) hp lq4 build?

Headers are priced good everybody needs to quit being needy/bitchy lol go buy cheap *** used headers on ebay if the prices are not to your liking.

1 7/8 stainless in Kooks is closer to $1K and Texas Speed is selling theirs for half of the competitors price. If you want cheap stainless headers get the ebay 1 3/4 and it comes with a y-pipe. Only problem is you will have to worry about the thinner material cracking. You get what you pay for.

Group purchases aren't just about helping the customer. It also helps the business by selling more product quicker. Granted they do sell a lot of headers and bang for your buck... But 500 bucks is a lot to me. I wouldn't touch a pair of ebay 1 5/8 headers though. I would rather not have stainless either. Would like some ceramic coated ones...
