headers
Re: headers
sure we do...just like we know what the "ideal woman" is, and the meaning of life....
that is such an open ended question it's rediculus.
all longtubes, given the same primary tube diameter and similar collector style will dyno basically the same...
shorties-mids-longtubes is another argument all together.
go with what you can afford
some notes on certain brands:
kooks and SLP are stainless, won't rust but are VERY expensive.
SLP has the worst ground clearance
flowtech and pacesetter seem to be the lowest cost
jet-hots have probably the best coating
hookers are most popular due to moderate cost and good quality

He should still consider using HF cats and maybe even switching his catback to a magnaflow or hooker or something along those lines.

All aftermarket exhaust is technically a potential "loud muffler" ticket. Cops don't care much about that. What I'm saying is, under normal driving conditions, a loudmouth can be more quiet on an M6 car than on an A4 car. We have the option to choose which RPM we cruise at. Not everyone drives around like an idiot at WOT all the time, and like I said, if he DOES bring those RPMs up, his ticket won't be for loud muffler it will be for racing.
BTW he CAN get a ticket for a loud muffler. I know a kid on my street that got that ticket in his truck (very loud truck so I can see why). Besides this is all aside from the fact that it sounds like CRAP. If you don't daily drive your car and cops are not a concern then that's fine. But a much better sounding setup with LT's - cats would be true duals, GMMG or Borla.

Good Luck
Re: headers
No, mine haven't turned any 'weird' colors, although they did get a slight "burnt" look to them. I think it goes away if you polish them, though. That's another good thing about stainless
