Default ARH Headers - best price

Who has the absolute best price on ARH headers out there?

Seeking 1 7/8" with cats, no air fittings.

I presume they are not ceramic coated?

Probably PFYC.com. No options for ceramic coating though. Around $1850 shipped with catless x-pipe.

I didn't find that one when searching their site. A good price still at 19 vs 24 direct from arh. Do you have the direct link?

Pfyc is 2056 as 1 7/8 with cats. Also a big savings over arh direct.

Dayyum.

Still expensive as all heck just for pipes. They really really are. But being already in for a penny, if I could sell my new in box TPS without losing my shirt it suddenly is only a few hundred bucks. Or so I may try to convince myself.

Yeah great find! Thanks! Even looking I couldn't find that.

Truth! The Kooks will get you for that price without the x-pipe. The fact the AHR's come with cats and x-pipe for sub $1900 makes the price more palatable.

One the best features of my car/mods is the exhaust note that comes from the cam/ Kooks 1 7/8s and off-road x-pipe through the same Borla Stingers you have on your coupe. I would 100% do it again.

There again I recentlt found myself thinking.... I wonder what I could sell BOTH Borla kits for? I have a titanium Z06 set which was CUT! by the seller's exhaust shop. I was goong to recut them to fit the Z06 with new trans/diff. But it would be less pricy to just get them welded together locally (I've got a guy) and possibly out them on the 99 coupe for when I sell it. The Stingers likely have greater value used. And if they got the number high enough I'd be curious to snag the newest model which allegedly kills all reverb.

I think both sets will net you more than you think with this goofy market. If you have two sets of Borla's ditch the quad tips first! That's what I did years ago. The single cannons look and sound so sweet to me. The reverb is there but when I ran 4.10s the drone in 6th was gone because the RPMs at 75-80mph were about 200 out of the drone zone.

Definitely hold on to the titaniums. They arent making those anymore and guys are always scapping them up
quick when they go up for sale.

Raging has great prices on superchargers with install. Typically the best price I come across.But still $114 more than Corvetteperformance.com for the ARH long tubes and catted X.

I think that's best price at the moment. Unless others came across them for less with shipping and they chime in.

One caveat...I've never dealt with or purchased from Performancecorvettes.com. Hopefully they have a sound reputation and what they showcase online is in fact in stock.

As you know...sometimes that additional $100 to a supporting vendor like Randy at Ragin' is worth its weight in headaches saved.

This ones all you my friend! I've been keeping a running list of extra parts owned (take-offs from my two other '99s and the one I kept) and performance parts of interest for either my next one or my brothers FRC. My brother passed away in 2021 (after I passed on keeoing his vette my mom sold his FRC to his best friend for $11k. My youngest brother got his 97 Viper RT) and I built a house in Costa Rica last year.

So I'm only buying for the C5 I've got and I already have a sweet exhaust setup I'm in love with!

West coast of CR is awesome. We are less than 300 meters from the water and 35 minutes south of Tamarindo (popular tourist town). Beautiful beaches with great surfing. Tropical birds and Howler Monkeys in the trees on our property. It's not my C8 Z06 but my property/ home value already went up $100k from when I contracted to build in 2020. Works for me.
