i dont have a ls1 .my brother just bought a 2000 ws6 and was wondering what is the best long tube i should get .....kooks.....hooker....? or is it like the lt1 longtubes are longtubes !

 

i prefer QTP but Kooks are damn good to. the fit on the QTP's is a bit better IMO.

 

Bang for buck = Pacesetters (easy install too)
Quality = QTP & Kooks

Common statements:
SLP's have ground clearance issues on some cars...
Hookers are generally over priced...
Flowtech's welds are kinda ****ty...

Basically, for almost every brand you can find one or two people that will praise their headers for every three or four that won't (we're such picky bastards sometimes). The funny thing is, there's not one member on this board that has owned every single brand to make a honest assesment of price, quality, durability, etc. But more or less, what's written above is proving to be true.

 

i have race readys on my car no air or egr is it the same for the ls1 just get rid of the air and egr cause i will be cuttting the cats ?

 

I'm a fan of the Kooks LTs, but any LT will do as long as you like the amount of clearance they provide and they are decently long. The longer, the better.

The JetHot Lt's are nice as well. I got pics I can send you if ya want 'em. Pics are of the headers off the car.

 

I have pacesetters.
I want the new QTPs.

 

The Jet Hots and Hookers are the same and the fit, finish and clearance is excellent.

I have Dynatech race headers on mine with merge collectors and I love them.

 

My brother's got the SLPs on his SS, and they opened up his car real nice. But like SSpdDmon said, he's got bad clearance issues.

 

I had hookers on my 01 Z28. I liked them.

 

I agree the Jet Hots and Hookers are great price and amazing fit, especially if your planning on lowering the car at all. I have Jet Hot and I'm very happy with them.

 

Coated pacesetters, well constructed, nice finish, and they fit like a glove.

 

What is your budget first off? Best value is pacesetter's Best quality now would be QTP. We sell both so if you'd like some price quote let us know. We could even get you quotes for all brands cheapets to most expensive just let us know.

Thanks
