Wanna pull the trigger on sum headers and want everyone's opinion on experience on their chosen brand. I don't have a SC, just looking for a little extra with all my mods. Chime in and thanks for your input. 2011 3.8 6 speed manual. Sent from the swamp while taggin' a gator!

I believe that RIPP is the only vendor that can provide dyno data to justify the purchase ($1600).

Good luck.

I had JBA ceramic coasted on my 2011 with a supercharger. I only did it to fix the cracked stock manifolds. Other than the RIPP ones, I wouldn't bother

Our long tube headers are made from USA T304 stainless steel in 16GA. Can give you up to 30 WTQ and more than 600 RPM erlier in the RPM band. More info here.

Thanks for looking.

It's more than likely that I will end up with RIPP, but wanted input from other experiences from different setups. The only good reviews are from rigs that have RIPP, so I guess that's my answer. Thanks for the input guys!

I'm getting ready to install BBK ceramic coated headers on our 2009. Just another option.

RIPP Headers are NOT legal for onroad use in CA. The reason being, when CARB updated their guidelines for aftermarket CAT's and Manifolds, it stipulated that they cannot be moved from the factory location. So meh....

RIPP
