    Default Preferred exhaust header

    We had a pretty good turn out on votes for the preferred Cold Air Intake (CAI), and some great tid-bits of info worth taking into consideration if you're in the market for a CAI. The CAI poll is still open, so if you haven't voted you still can....here

    But lets move on to preferred headers.

    As before, please vote on your preferred headers, and if you like point out ones that are good, but didn't make the list. As always feel free to tell us why you think your preferred headers are either better than other, or not.

    Happy voting!

    I've always had good luck with Prostit..er... Hooker headers, but then again I'm old school. What do I know.

    So one vote for flowtech, and one for hooker

    Jamie, we all know why you choose hooker headers....now let's keep it clean.
    and for goodness sakes man...stop giggling every time you read or say "hooker headers"

    I've only tried one vehicle with a true balanced and tuned exhaust, it was by Flowtech. But man was it sweet. It was done by Flowtech people and what a huge difference it makes when it done by a professional. The power and sound. I can imagine MPG was better too.

    yea my friend is running the hookers on his 1500 pickup and says that they do help with better flowing exhaust and they gave him better mpg too. they sounded great too.

    Default THE BEAST :whip:

    Hooker's seem to give better flow. The ceramics last much longer: :
