Default Paragon Performance C8 Corvette Equal Length Headers

I'm probably jumping the gun on this question beings I don't even have my 2025 z51 3lt stingray. I'm wanting to put headers on it when it arrives in December. Has anyone known a situation that gm denied a warranty claim and said it was due to the install of them? second part to the question, is there a better header option. from what i have researched they seem to claim they have the highest hp gain.

aFe or ARH would be a better header choice.

I've had my aFe headers for going on 3 years/20k miles now and my dealership hasn't had any issues with them during warranty jobs or routine service.

I have the aFe headers paired with Corsa cats and a Borla catback.

I have ARH headers on my ‘23 Z51. I also deleted the cats, so it’s pretty rowdy…..

aFe is my personal choice. Very strong mid-range gains due to the Tri-Y (4-2-1) runner design.
