You have made a great choice and I know you will be very happy with our product! If you have any further questions, feel free to PM me.

The big difference that I see in the headers is the primary length. The ARH primaries are way longer. Does this make more power I dont know. They both look like great quality.

Thanks Josh. I'll be placing my order for a 2SS 45th Anniversary Edition Convertible shortly and will be putting your setup in straight away once I take delivery. I will be sure to reach out for you when I place my order!!

The picture I am attaching is not the greatest, but you get the idea.

I read the info in this link.

I don't get what are the drawbacks of going with a 2" primary setup? Do you just lose top end? Mpgs? I don't get why you wouldn't want to add the extra hp from a bolt on.

It isn't because of any drawbacks, there is just mostly no gains over 1 3/4" until you're pushing 700+ hp. Until then, they dyno the same up to about 5k rpms before any gains start to show and then it's small. Most people will never hit 5k rpm so there really is no benefit unless you're building for racing.

I should be able to get this up for next week. We have installed many ARH systems with out a problem. They are a great product. I have also tuned SW systems from customers that brought us theri cars. Both are great performers. If you have any questions about the 2 setups feel free to give us a call.
