Or if you hooked up a forum member with a sweet deal and then they wrote a thread on how much they liked them and how much power they added that would help too.

All 3 major header companies will be in the $1500 range.. but if we can get some volume numbers that can change. One company might be more flexible to work with than the other.

Wow, those are some tiny cats!! Hope they are big enough to keep from overheating and melting when under a towing load. Hope you get the headers soon, can't wait to see some numbers, and get an install perspective, even though these are likely out of my price range..........

From what I have read on the Dodge Ram forums is that ARH makes a quality product(even though expensive),with no fitment issues.Installation was said to be easier compared to other brands,and anyone that has installed thier own headers will appreciate this.Hopefully,5star will have a good review and numbers for everyone.I am still in for headers only(no cats/Y-pipe)with Jet hot coating.Thanks 5star.

The resonator part of that catback looks mighty long to have 2 mufflers behind it on a regular cab truck. lol
