Installed mine last weekend, not a fun job on jack stands but totally doable. I did it completely by myself, the fit is great, passenger side may cause a few cuss words but the install is pretty easy. I have installed much worse systems over the years. The quality of this system is impressive. They sound great, fit well and even without a tune yet, I can tell a huge difference, can't wait to get it tuned, looking forward to seeing what it does to my MPG as well! Great product!

Thank you, I missed that some how?. How much horsepower are the
1 3/4" good up until before you would absolutely need a 1 7/8"?
That is hard to say as it is very dependent on each car, how you are making the power, size of the engine, etc. Even on a stock car, the 1 3/4" and 1 7/8" headers will make different power. Where as a 1 3/4" would be better suited on a stock-ish 346ci car, a 1 7/8" will make "different" power. For example more of RPM range effected power, possibly slightly different peak numbers. I would say you can certainly run 1 3/4" headers on most all applications without much notice in difference, however if you are running big cubes or a ton of horsepower looking for every ounce of power, I would look into larger primaries. Again, it is all based on your specific set-up. Assuming you are making somewhere in the ballpark of 550 rwhp, just guessing, I would say 1 3/4" headers would still work terrific, and a swap to 1 7/8" would maybe net you a couple peak ponies, but the car might get up and go a little better in the lower rpm's with the 1 3/4"
