HOOKER BLACKHEART SHORTY HEADERS

Hi. does anyone here have experience with HOOKER BLACKHEART SHORTY HEADERS? I have 2011 v6 camaro and want to upgrade the headers. So far I have CAI cold air intake and gibson axle back exhaust. Not sure if I should also get HOOKER BLACKHEART CAT-BACK EXHAUST. It's not easy to find info about these headers. So if you can give me any feedback would be great. The reason I chose them is because they are made of 304L stainless steel and I want shorties because don't want to deal with CEL check engine light and get a tune.
thanks

No experience with that brand. I have the Douge Thorly ceramic shorties on mine and I have loved them so far.

Yes. I live in Illinois. No Sniffer/Visual test just OBD code checking

Not sure if high flows with shorties will throw a code. I run the stock cats because the IPF supercharger will melt the high flows.

OK. So obviously nobody has heard about these headers. What brand would you suggest for a V6 LLT camaro? thanks
