I installed mine 2 months ago.
The price was right.They look great, the fit was perfect. The sound is incredible and I'm very pleased with the performance boost.
Highly recommended.

We have probably installed every brand available for the C5 and we feel the AR headers are the best we have tested. They do everything well from make great power and torque, fit and finish, materials right down to the supurb customer service. There is a reason all out shop cars are running them Feel free to call me with any questions or if you need a set..

ARH are pretty nice headers-I was more interested in the
performance and I was pleased with the increase in hp.

vid w sound of AR 1 3/4 headers w high flow cats
I just put my headers on last week, finish and fit are perfect. Well made and the SOTP dyno tells me they added some performance. Here is a vid from Spring Mtn on Sat, you can hear the exhaust pretty well from about 1/4 mile away until i pass in front of the camera. They sound great to me but are not loud/obnoxious at all. To me they are perfect.
Vid to follow...trying to upload now.
(streetfire.net keeps bombing out, pm me for vid if your interested)

I talked to Nick at ARH today. He is fixing me up with a set at Carlisle. Then I talked to Chris at ECS and they are doing a tune after the header install by Nick's guys. Maybe just the start here for me huh ?

I love em! The sound of these headers along with my B&B bullets are amazing according to my neighbors. They own a couple of 10 sec hondas with fart pipes
. Said they would trade their timeslips for a Vette that sounds like mine any day!
