Stainless works 1 7/8

I know a few of you guys run with SW. How are your feelings on the product and how was installation? Trying to do some research on their LTs. I noticed they recently went to the merge spike, but haven't heard quite as much about SW as I have about Kooks and ARH.

In before the Kooks and ARH headers pimps

I recently got them as a birthday gift from my awesome wife I went back and forth for months between all of the major and I ended on stainless works based on the quality of their stuff plus cost and a lifetime warranty. I dont think you can go wrong with SW/ARH/Kooks/Dynatech. Buy the brand you feel most comfortable with and at the $$ you can afford.

If you do go with SW contact Chase at APEX he hooked me up with a smoking deal!

It was litterally a coin toss for me between Stainless Works or ARH. The coin favored ARH. I don't think you will be disappointed at all with Stainless works.

I have SW on mine and I think they are great. No problem with installation and matched right up to my flowmasters.

Here it is on the dyno. I didn't get any sound clips before I put the cam in. SO this is a sound clip of flowmaster AMT catback, SW 17/8 LT, and TSP cam.

You guys have made this very unfair with the posting of your LTs with Cams. Cams make a great old school muscle car sound...I do agree flowmasters pair up great with LTs, but I already have the Borla S type. Borla S type and Flowmaster was my two choices for exhaust last year...
