Is there any performance difference between tuned length like the
BBK or JBA over the Ford Racing or
Pypes? Those two don't look much better than stock manifolds. I would think that the others would help a bit more. I know that nothing is going to perform like LT's but they aren't an option for everyone. California emissions testing sucks.
Since you have to run a tune with headers it's almost impossible to get an honest dyno test out of any company that makes them. I think the closest I have seen is the JBA. They say what was on the car for the baseline. If you can believe the tests they seem to be alright.
