aw man, i didnt get to put my .02 in yet...

ALL HEADERS HAVE THEIR DOWNFALLS! the cheap slip fit headers are hard to install. the expensive slip fit headers are alright, but expensive. TOGs and S&S are the only non-slip fit headers. i have ran both sets and i like my S&S better.

SLP and SSAC have some retarded downpipe design with a weird bend that you WILL hit on things in the road and destroy it.

Pacesetters are okay, but the two into one design at the downpipe has got to be one of the dumbest things i have ever seen.

ZZP...i dont know much about them at all, but ive heard good and bad things about them.

TOGs are a REALLY nice set of headers, but the crossover can be slightly harder to seal if youre installing them for your first time.

S&S....well, super easy to install and seal.

nothing besides the extra wear on the valvetrain that comes with ANY valvetrain mods (including cams).

TOGs have been around for about 8 years, I've had mine for 5 years and they were installed 3 times, never a leak. I sold them to a fellow member and his install went leak free as well. There are tricks to installing them like making studs out of the crossover bolts.

yea the last few times ive emailed zzp i get one word answers for there response.

I just can't belive that.

I must have the best luck of all time. Just at the end of last week I was e-mailing their customer service addy for info on adding an extra bung for a wideband. Zooomer responded personally with plenty of info each time. Plus they're cutting me a great deal for it to be added in a good spot so I won't have to deal with it later.

Still, no complaints from me...

it was zoomer that gave me the one word responses.

Then I guess he must like me or something. Or NAIOA since that's part of my sig.

Either way, I just figure it's fair to offer the good experiences with the bad.

true, and i was just offering my experense

if you ask in a formal way, you might get a better response.

im simply asked a question, and they simply gave me an answer. they probably could have gave it more attention but o well.

comp 105# springs have a nasty habit of breaking lately. i would stay away from them.
