One answer is RH > SH+TP.
The RH develops more power then the SH+TP combo alone. Its up to you if you want to get the DCRH, but I wouldn't waste on that crappy RH.

x2 on that i wouldn't get ceramic headers it ain't worth it but its a hell of a price for them so if you want go for it im running stainless steal headers Comptech headers and i felt the difference my friends have ceramic DC headers they have had problems with them like they have broken but like i said &80 is a heck of a bargain

Not the first time if your endlinks have never been removed. Spray your front endlinks a day or so in advance. It'll make the install go 10x smoother.

</TD></TR></TABLE>It doesn't make more power, SS is just more durable. Make sure you get motor mount inserts so you wont crack the ceramic piece. I'm running a ceramic and it's holding up really well
