Same to you. Hope you're not stuck working a 12-hour O/T shift today, like I am. ....ah well....at least it's take care of all of the money I spent this Christmas.

Why are they so much better?

I believe because they are custom, and you do not need to drop the headers out while installing a new clutch. So it saves some work...

I've had Hooker LT headers on my GT for 20,000 miles. They are high quality headers. To help keep it cooler in the engine compartment, I bought the ceramic coated version. With the Hooker LT headers and o/r x-pipe, I gained 23 rwhp.

BBK's ceramics are very nice as long as you drive the car on a regular basis, if it sits (as in a deployment to Afghanistan for seven months) they wll rust, I imnagine any of them would,talk about being upset. Otherwise I am happy with them. I might have went with another brand but BBK was the only com pany making them when I bought them. Gained about 25RWHP with the tubes and O/R H pipe. I was very shocked,sound great too.

Actually, not to shamefully plug the Kooks again, but if you look carefully at the pictures I posted, you'll notice that the ceramic coating is not only on the outside of the header, but the inside too. My buddies got a Camaro with a set going on 5-years and aside from the normal under hood grime, they look as good as they did brand new.

I posted the before/after dyno graphs in July or August. You should be able to find them doing a search on Hooker headers. I probably got 15 rwhp from the LT headers and another 8 rwhp from the o/r x-pipe. This was by far my best mod to date.
