The quality/materials look great but you have to justify that amount some how, if you can.
Power/torque increase?? no numbers "yet"...??

Its inovation, capitolisim, marketing and everything else at its finest. They know people want them. They know people will buy them. Are they high? Isnt everything they sell high? It is and they are for a reason. It works for them.

They are nice headers. No doubt about it. are they out of line? I dont think so. Look at turbo headers. Alot more $$$$. Alot less material.

Something else I noticed that I don't like, O2 bung placement. It's too close to the merge so you'll be getting too much signal from one cylinder. I haven't seen these in a car so I'm not sure why they have such a short collector on them but ideally, the bung needs to move away more to get a better mix from all cylinders on that bank.
