Default Headers for '02 Z06

Can someone who has added headers to the '02 Z06 describe the results?
Is it worth the trouble?What brand is recommended?

Richy, we will be testing some different long tubes at Berrel next week some time (weather permitting), and putting them on JD's dyno to check the gains, I will let you know how we make out. ;)

I saw the dyno results before and after on an EB 02 at the Vette Doctors. I'm not sure which headers they used (they were long tubes though) but it baselined at 354 RWHP and after installing the headers it registered 372RWHP. I might be off by 2 or 3 hp but not more.

I have TPIS long tubes on my 02 - they made a bigger SOTP difference than the same mod on my 01.

The 02 was not on the dyno before the mods. It's scheduled for dyno tuning at Cartek on the 14th of March.

Hirohawa, I'll post all my numbers after the dyno session on the 14th but I'm afraid they won't tell you much because of all the other mods.

I gained 21.9rwhp after adding Vortex intake, TPIS Long tubes and Bassani exhaust ---can't tell you what the headers would have done alone.
