I heard that stillen's didn't have a very large gain... naturally the LT's are going to have more because they are a header and TP all in one basically... if Stillen's with a set of ART pipes on a stock set-up were tested, you might the comparable gains.

Re-read what I said.
Also, LTH v. other options have been done and the LTH still have larger gains.

I did read what you said.... I SAID that ART PIPES with Stillens... I didn't say just other set-ups... ART pipes are PROVEN to put out higher gains than your standard test pipes or HFC's.... so unless this specific set-up has been done under the same conditions then it's speculation... thank you.

Speculation is what makes it all go around. ART pipes I am sure show better gains on some setups and less on others. It is like I have seen other products do the same thing, every car, dyno, day is different and you must take each result posted at that value for that setup.

that's all well and good... my point is simply that as far as I know back to back LTH's vs ART pipes with Stillen headers have not been compared.
