hey I just went to the company and quoted I am trying to get to the bottom of this mess. Keyboard! please.... I am not a nut and bolt guy. I am currently looking to get out of ford the real facts ... I work at CAP and they are really F&&k Up. In the summer when there are storms they shut down the lines because the water comes into the building... When I walk down the steps you can see at least ounce a week **** Roaches you can put in the palm of your hand. The rats are as big as small cats. Should I go on????? there are no exaust vents in the bath rooms should I go on??? Yes When I though 8 months ago I would be working for a great co. Well Should I go ON??? Do u want to hear about the IT part of the company? It will blow your mind on just how far back the software is. I am not looking at my spelling so I am ranting. BUT I do love my Roush.
YOU would not believe how the safest car in america is built. So take that wrench and put it on my HEaders and let me know when your done.... LOL

Wow, that is quite a post.
I also want to wish you the best of luck finding a new job. I hope you get to leave Ford Motor Co. ASAP. 
I am also not sure what this post has to do with your earlier slam on the OBX headers but I would only ask you to post facts, and real life experiences with OBX headers good and bad. Or any other USA manufactured header. Your empty opinion means nothing to me. Your post contains no useful information for the other members of this forum that is trying to decide how to spend there hard earned dollars. I have never posted one negative post about USA made headers other than I wouldn't spend $1500 bucks on a set "just because it is made in the USA" . It is all about what is the best bang for the buck. I would like to hear your real life experiences with this type of mod. If you don't have any please refrain from commenting. Please.Thanks Scott

CR and/or KenB
If we have the opportunity, we will. We're going to be insanely busy with our grand opening over the next 2 weeks, and then SEMA is here. I promise, if I get the chance to get them in and test them out, I will. We might just not be able to get a chance until the first week in Nov.
Until then, if anyone can even just get good pictures of them, that would be great. If not, I'll take care of it first available chance.

With Sema being over and the first week of November long gone. How about looking into the OBX headers? Or for that matter KenB For kicks and giggles
I'm curious to see how you guys rate them WITH first hand experience

Congrats! who did you buy the system from? Website? I'm in the market, and I'm sort of sold on one of: Kooks, AR. or SW, (LT plus catted-X), but haven't made a decision one way or the other yet.

Looking at the pic of the BBK LT's, vs the ARH LT's, the BBK's don't seem to be of equal length, and the ARH do.
Admittedly I'm no expert, but I thought the equal length pipes were a requirement to have one exhaust pulse create a vacuum for the next one behind it?
Are you going to dyno the car before and after to see what gains you obtained? I'd be real interested to see that. I'm hoping to gain ~4rwhp with the Airiad CAI, 8rwhp with the Steeda UDP, and 20 rwhp with the equal length LT's high flowcats and x pipe. Currently at 285 rwhp SAE, so that would get me to 317 rwhp (372 bhp).
