I have KOOKS and a CORSA Tigershark system and I love it. It has no drone.

i would avoid SLP headers. if you want to spend the money, get a system like kooks, american racing, lg's, etc. not slp... slp and corvette just dont belong... plus they hang too darn low.

I don't like the fit of the SLPs

Kooks, Amer. Racing, LG, Dynatech, Stainless Works, all make great headers. I prefer Kooks and a GHL cat back.

oh, did I mention.......

The only advantage of the SLP's is that they are a coated stainless........that is, if you even want the coating to begin with. You WILL scrape the headers with SLP, plus they are not true equal length.
