So I've been looking at replacing my header since my oem one has cracked and compromised. i thought about buying a replacement oem, then a cheaper on but bumped my budget up to 300-400 bucks.

I am in between a Gibson Nickel plated chrome Performance header
for $334

Or An Edelbrock Shorty exhaust set up
(not sure if ill have to extend anything to make it fit?)
for $379

Tell me what y'all think
Id like reviews if anyone has either of these.
Or suggestions for a performance header, thats got a quality gauge.

THANKS!!! ;D

(first is similar to the gibson, second pic is the edelbrock)

 

i would say go for the edlebrock i like that collector design

 

I think either would work well... have you looked at the APN? It's a stainless header for ~$150. I have this one installed now, really like it so far. It's worth a look, plus you could save that extra money for other mods later.

I have an APN also. It looks just like the Edelbrock in construction. If you want to spend more money, you could always send it out to have it Jet Hot ceramic coated.

 

gibson is a very high quality brand but i plan on going with a stainless steel flow daddy header http://www.rustysoffroad.com/jeep-pe...&jeep_type=699

 

Quality is what I want as well as performance. Idk I'm just a little weird of a 150 dollar header. But who has the AMP? How is it?

 

its apn and everybody has them, its the most widely used header. Its stainless steel how bad could it be lol

 

Oh lol ops!!! Its a matter of gauge on the material

 

Owwwwee

 

I was too at first. After reading pages of reviews from different sites; I decided that I could always take it off and sell it and get a different one if it was not what I wanted. Turns out it was a good call... no complaints here.

 

I've had the edlebrock for little more than 5 years now. Have zero problems with it. Was a direct bolt on no mods needed.

 

Whish this was around when I bought my banks, would've saved me some $.

 

I have the pacesetter I have had any problems

You mean have "not", right? I like Pacesetter in general, but don't have an opinion on XJs....yet.

 

I like the look of this header it looks like i t would flow better than the apn
