Default Rusty's Header Question

Has anyone used the FlowDaddy header from Rusty's? Did it make any noticable performance/ fuel economy/ sound differences. Before and after comparasions would be great. Thanks

My stock unit is fine I wanted to do a aftermarket/performance swap. And where does the Rusty's unit look weak? I'm no expert so IDK what to look for to identify weak points.

I just replaced my header with a flow daddy from Rustys. Huge difference in sound and power. Make sure to get the stainless. It was worth every nickle to me. You will notice the design is different also. Good product.
