We have installed all of the top three. I think the AR Headers go in much easier. The last set only took 2 hours with an X pipe. Also, the AR headers have the merge collector and all inside welds deburred/ported.
Having said that, I would shop around and see who will give you the best buy.

It's kinda like Nike or Addida...you will do good with both.
As for Kooks...they too have a merge collector along with all internal welds blended.
I installed mine on my 07 in like 2 hours..pretty much all Corvette header installs are dirt simple.
I would say buy which ever one you get the best deal on. We don't sell ARH but we have some great deals on Kooks.

Kooks were $300-$400 less. Tbryne had the best deal I could find about a month ago when they were running a special, so I chose them.

I've got Kooks, and they were a breeze to install. I've heard that AR are fantastic as well and have better customer service in case you run into an issue. Don't think you can go wrong either way.
