I was very happy with my Dynatech LT's. Solid 20-30 hp gain.

I've got the Dynatechs. Felt SOTP torque increase immediately. I believe I would have realized a 25hp gain with just Blackwing and Dynatech longtubes if I would have had it tuned before Heads/Cam. My baseline with Blackwing and Headers was 310rwhp/329rwtq without a tune. I didn't have it tuned until after the heads/cam/and other stuff/was installed. Dynatech Headers are very good quality! Nice fit, and easy install.

Very Good product. Mine have been on a few months now, very happy with them. Great sound, good SOTP increase in HP and torque. Good bang for buck.

Great fit and finish. Insane howl through the Borla cat-backs, and no code throwing.

I hope so. I just purchased a set from Corvette Garage. Made 313RWHP with Blackwing and LS1 edit. Hoping for substantially more after the install. Keeping my fingers crossed anyway.

Just got done installing them on my '00 FRC. With the help of a buddy, it took us @ 8 hrs. Install is very straight forward, & the results are worth every penny, IMO. Untuned I can really feel a difference up top. 3rd gear is just plain nasty now. I can't wait for heads & cam now, my G5X3 is getting lonely in my garage.
