For the price they are fine but I would never substitute for quality especially on a corvette.You can spend a few hundred bucks more and get a nice header system w/ a matching x pipe.

They aren't TPIS because the air tubes aren't correct for TPIS, which have air tubes that go to 3 cylinders instead of just one.
