Any truth to rumors that ARH headers fit better?
Heard kooks and tsp may hit the steering knuckle on right turns. Any truth to this or more fake news?

I've been wondering this same thing, and I'm just referring to 1 7/8.

I dont work for CNN, so with that said, I can tell you that my ARH headers fit fine. Nothing hitting on anything or rubbing. The X-pipe was tricky to fit and I had to have an exhaust shop fine tune the alignment on everything for me after I got everythign bolted up. Doing it on jackstands on your back is just not advantageous for getting it 100% spot on.

No issues with my 1 7/8" Kooks either. Fit like a glove.

I had issues with my 5th gen using TSP's 2" headers. Granted it was easily fixed but, considering the pretty significant price difference between the two, and the fact that the vast majority of people did not experience that problem, I took a gamble and I was perfectly happy with the results.
I know this discussion isn't talking about the 5th gen at all but, it's all trends and information so, take it for what its worth. I would still consider getting TSP headers for my 6th gen in spite of my experience. I can't justify spending over a $1000 for some headers--no different than the same sentiment I hold towards axle-back systems.
