I have a set of ARH on each of my C5s. Does that count for two votes?
Easy install on both the 1 3/4 and 1 7/8 versions.
No issues with burning spark plug or any other wires after 2 years of daily use.
Quality product.
Helpful sales staff, even though I purchased both sets used.

Other, Finish Line Performance. I like them because they are what I have! That seems to be where this is going. Finish Line is still in business but no longer making headers. Got mine from Patches and they seem to be a high quality system.

Have Kooks 1 7/8" headers on my 98. Those along with no cats, x-pipe, and Corsa Indy Racing mufflers = awesome sound and proformance.

My car came with stainless works already installed. No issues with wires or heat. Can't speak to install ease or difficulty.
They're my favorite because they were essentially FREE and took no labor.
My favorite beer? Cold and free. Lol

Kooks here. I bought a set of XS Power headers but there were some quality and fitment issues so I sent them back and got a full refund.

Kooks. Great quality, value, fitment (and easy install since the redesign).

My vote is other. I have the Texas-Speed LT's with catless x-pipe. The fitment was great and the install was flawless(according to my builder/tuner) the price is right and I got good numbers and results from them. Quality is nice and they sound wonderful too.
