We can go back and forth all day. But when it comes down to it, a pair of TSP, OBX, Kooks, or ARH will all have good fitment and quality. They each will give the same HP with the only difference being due to variances between runs/cars/dynos/conditions. ARH and Kooks might have a slightly better quality. And ARH is known for putting more R&D into their products. They usually include extras like brackets and bolts and stuff to make the install process easier. But is it worth twice the money? Not to me. I do believe you get what you pay for sometimes. But other times you pay more for virtually the same thing.
If anyone wants to take me up on my offer then let me know. It'll give me an excuse to go ahead and mod this thing and void the warranty already!!

I agree here, I'm sure arh has the best overall fitment and it's nice to have a "gn performance" part, but the newer batches of TSP headers seem to be fine and even include a bolt for steering shaft clearance on the 2" versions.
Quality and fitment aside, both Pray and Jeremy Formatto have told me 2 inch tsp make the most power. Jeremy told me he has consistently seen better gains with the tsp than arh.
I was for sure going to get arh until intalked to Jeremy recently and Pray confirmed as much. I'll go with some TSP now and save some money as well.
