Default headres, cats & crossover

I just ordered the TPIS Headers, Random Technology high flow Cats and Cossover Pipe. This is the same setup featured in the latest issue (August) of Corvette Fever Magazine.

It boasts of a "proven" 40HP/33TQ gain in performance. The article provides full dyno numbers to confirm this. Seems to me this is the setup you want if you want a bolt on kit with no cutting or welding.

I, however, think I might have not gotten the best deal for this kit I could have. Since they are on back order with a projected delivery time of about 2.5 weeks (about the first or second week in July), I still have time to cancel the order and go with a better deal.

I am about to pay $1599 for this kit. Is this too much or is it about right???
Thanks in advance Matt

I purchased FLP system for the same price and it was a piece of cake to install, absolutely no welding.
