Nickey Chicago Edition ARH Headers

Anyone know the difference in the Nickey Chicago ARH and the Regular ARH headers?

As far as I know, one says "Nickey" on them, and one doesn't.... nothing else!

Not entirely true. On many occasions we've custom sized our systems for some of Nickey's wild builds. Those same upgrades are performed for our other customers when necessary but with Nickey it's quite often. ARH was never a one size fits all company.

The Nickey Tag adds a nice touch to an already exceptional ride.

ARH is one of our strategic partners. We have been testing with their headers on our engine dynos even before the first 5th generation Camaros were delivered to the public.

All of our engine dyno pulls are done with ARHs in place.

We use them in all of our Nickey Stage I, II and III builds, the Fred Gibb 427 Camaros and the Yenko 5th gen, as well as many other shop built Super Cars.

You can purchase Nickey Edition private labled Headers, which feature a Nickey Tag and are built for us by ARH directly from Nickey Chicago.

So Yes, I understand what you are both saying, and please believe me, I have the utmost respect for both of your companies. You both produce top-shelf products with the highest quality possible. But to properly answer the OP's question, if a customer was to purchase the Nickey Edition Headers off the shelf from Nickey, they are indeed the same exact headers that ARH sells off their shelf. The only difference being the extra little welded-on tag that says "Nickey Edition...", right? There's no difference in material, quality, or dimensions, correct? I know if I had my choice, and money wasn't an issue, I would definitely get the Nickey Edition Headers!!! In fact, I would love to let Nickey take my car all the way......oh if only money grew on trees!!!

Let me try to clarify. We have Nickey Edition headers by ARH which may be identical to ARHs which you can purchase directly from ARH or one of their other dealers.

Bottom line, the fit finish, materials, performance, price and fact that they are made in the USA will technically be the same, other than our Nickey tag.

ARHs makes custom headers per our specifications and we incorporate those parts into some of our builds. If you want to buy these special parts you can get them only from Nickey.
