Now Im wondering what the difference is between the headers...the AEMs, the Dynatech, and LPP

I know a lot has to do with brand name..but is there a big difference in performance between $500 LTs vs $1100 LTs?

again... some more uneducated .02 from the guy who always has an opinion.

in almost any purchase a human can make, the most expensive is usually a waste of money and the cheapest is usually "worth the money"

(by worth the money i mean you get what you pay for)

often times it is wise to shop smart and do homework personally. I am not sure how these rules apply to LT's. But again, I plan to buy the LPP's w/ ORY... so we will see.

A lot of the difference in price will depend on the material, finish, and quality of the part. Cheaper headers will usually have thinner flanges and simply just painted black. Higher priced quality headers will thicker flanges and a better finish or coating. They will usually perform the same in terms of gains, but the longevity is what will be vastly different.

+1 on what JK said. Ceramic coated headers can get expensive, but worth it for longevity of them and heat dispersion (sp). Anyways, my n00b question of the day.....what's ORY mean? Is it off-road Y-pipe?

If I don't get AEMs as our next set, I will probably go for Dynatechs. We are currently looking at Kooks for the TBSS as well.

as for looks, Im not too worried...I'll get the cheapest set I can when it comes to looks, because Im just gonna wrap them with tape anyways....I know theres not much benefit..(maybe a slight underhood temp)...I just like the way the look wrapped...so I wont need anything fancy looking...


whoa...$1,400 for Dynatech???
....they arent even california legal Im sure... =(

You have got to pay to play! If you are worried about money, then just get ones that are within your price range.

X2 The only LTs that are CA legal, I believe the Bassani mids are legal too.
