I think the TSP have a spiked collector, that could account for some of the price difference.

How far off are the prices? Headers don't usually make much more power than a comparable set. Might be 5-10whp at most comparing long tube 1-7/8 primaries.

I have a set on my tahoe and for the price have zero complaints. They come with clamps that leave alot to be desired for but I knew that before hand and bought good ones before installing them.

The TSP are 614ish shipped with Y pipe and the speed engineering is 430ish shipped with Y pipe as well but idk they look almost the same except the collector and there both 1 7/8's

$184 is a big difference, I'd go with the speed engineering

Yeah the price what gots me right now but don't want one of those that "u get what u pay for" so was really curious on the quality of those headers and Y pipe and how's the collector on those headers looks different?

Those look like they were cloned after pacesetters. I've had the kooks and tsp next to each other and they were pretty much identical. I'm sure speed engineering ones would be be ok, I think they have plenty of good reviews.
