Tom you are comparing uncoated mild to uncoated SS.

I was comparing the Jet-hot style coated mild to uncoated SS. Exactly like the come.

Jet-hot coating a set of headers is in the $200-300 range IIRC. That makes the price difference very minor.

Also the W-R headers don't match the primary lengths nor does the overall build quality look very good. (Even if the material itself is better now)


If you want to compare just the price of the headers as they come it looks like the W-R headers have a huge price advantage. However when you look at the whole picture it's not such an advantage really and that's just from a price stand point. The MSDS headers have ever other advantage except the Y-pipe design. Then again I bet the W-R Y-pipe's extra length unbalances the U bend's pulse. Par for the course with Weapons-Rice. If you aren't going to exactly match stock then just remove it and tune your chip for it or run a modified stock Y-pipe.
