I run Flowtech which are knockoff Hookers(made by the same people) and are decent for the price and I can still drop my trans with them installed.

Bang for buck headers usually include BBK and FRPP. But that's just my $.02
obviously. if i wanted the best i'd say kooks or stainless works. but everyone wants to spend their money differently, and spending 7-8 hundred on headers is not feasible. realize with common sense that i meant " best bang for the buck, aka best "cheap" headers " as opposed to kooks, or stainless works - instead of being an ******* thanks.

It's cool. I figure he might be able to get a set of lightly used better quality headers for the price of new cheap headers.

I have a complete mac exhaust system including a set of MAC 1 5/8 LT's and they are great. Great fit, great flow and great price. look at the dyno numbers is it worth a couple hundred more dollars for a fancy name and maybe 5 more hp.

If you are looking at things other than name and power. Yes. Can you drop your transmission without messing with the headers? Are they stainless? Those are justy a few things I looked at when picking what headers I wanted for my car.

I have Mac LT's.. no they arent ceramic or stainless or any of that useless garbage. you cant see them and if they corrode it will be years before they need changing. I had zero fitment issues and have had them for a year. I can drop my trans with them on! Dont overlook MAC

I lived in Galveston, TX for 5 years. Corrosion may have been a bit more of an issue to me.

"uesless garbage" ... lol.
