I chose ARH.

1. They build super nice headers.
2. Headers give nice result numbers.
3. Since you live in NY, ARH are located in long island
4. If you drive to there shop, they will custom install your headers.

Kooks to ARH is like Canon to Nikon, Ford to Chevy, Crest to Colgate. It's really which one do you want more. They're both great brands with super high build quality, American made, guaranteed for life, and likely going to last you as long as you will own your car. Personally I went with Kooks because I got free ceramic coating when I purchased mine. However, Chevy uses ARH on the COPO Camaros. So good luck and enjoy whichever one you pick!

Most of your brand name/popular stainless headers will be on equal ground as far as performance. They all most likely outlive your car. In the long run. ...it all depends on what you are willing to pay for.....a name, customer service or simply a product that has been around for decades and that most places have down to a science.
