I'm not going to knock anyone else's product; however, comparing dyno graphs does not mean that you will obtain the best performance. All dyno's are different as stated by other members. I can tell you that we put down 532 HP on a ECS's Dynapac and 477 HP on Tune Time's Mustang dyno. (These pulls were corrected and literally made a couple days apart.) You should compare products for fit, finish, price, paper results and most importantly, track results. We can tell you that the FASTEST N/A Vettes all run ARHs.
Robz's 346 C5Z ran 1 7/8" ARHs.
Robz's 388 C5Z runs ARHs.
Our Bolt-On C5Z ran 1 7/8" ARHs.
Our Bolt-On C6Z runs 1 7/8" ARHs.
Fartpipe's Bolt-On C6Z runs 1 7/8" ARHs.
Sebast19x Bolt-On C6Z runs 1 7/8" ARHs.
Just food for thought.

True... I should know a lot about being heartbroken by dyno numbers. lol I had a stalled A4 that was horrible on the dyno but quick on the street. Surprisingly I've heard a lot of positive things concerning the OBX headers. I recently had the chance to speak to a former LSx shop owner that we all know of (would rather not disclose) and he STRONGLY suggested the 1 7/8 header for the LSx cars. Brian Tooley @ TEA even said that with the stock 2.00/1.55 valves work well with the bigger primaries and DO NOT lose power on the low end. Even though I have this knowledge, it's tough to justify spending $1400 on headers when my Pacesetters on my Z28 were great. Can we really feel a 5-10hp difference? I probably can't... that money could be spent on the dyno tune! With this same logic, the TSP mild steel ceramic coated headers are an option too. If there were 1 7/8 headers that were made by OBX or TSP I'd already have them.
Good luck with your build.

03 ZO6, double cone intake, Carbon Fiber Speed hump, Stainlessworks 1 7/8 long tube headers with cats and crosspipe, Tune, and the stock Ti exhuast.
SAE corrected 380.9 HP 361.9 ft-lbs
In comparison on other C5's and C5 ZO6's dune on the same dyno I am on the higher end of things for cars with similar mods.

Looking for a good comparison between bone stock '02-'04 Z06's that have been tuned VS bolt on cars with headers, intake, etc
If you do have aftermarket headers, please specify primary size as well. FWIW I will get the 1 7/8 ARH's if I do buy headers.
I might be moving back to CA and if I get a good idea what tuned cars are putting out I may just save my money and not buy long tube headers and avoid smog all together. I've already had a 478whp '98 Z28 would like to keep my '02 C5Z fairly stock.

Sell your '72 and buy a newer Vette and forget about doing the engine swap. Just an idea...

Notice most people say thier numbers are from a low reading dyno or are relatively high in comparison to other similar cars done on the same dyno.
For the record: My car underperforms most other cars with similar mods on most dyno's. I think I may have been the first to say that.

I think it goes on post count. You need to post up more often
