I have to say i felt a little increase with the CA header, good for high end horsepower. Oh yeah, i have one for sale on ebay, i switched to long tube weapon-r for more low end, heres the site CA HEADER.
The only faults with the headers i have found are the welds. I have to say, the welds on CA Headers and Weapon-R headers are a bit sloppy, but at least they're strong and its nothing a few hours with a dremel didn't fix. There were more TIG welds on the weapon-r which were cleaner, it took a little longer to smooth out the CA header just right. Nice to get every bit of HP out of your components. I know GMP Manifold will be smooth because they've been honed and extruded, but i doubt it puts out as much HP or is as cheap as CA header.
Oh yeah, another plus for the GM Manifold is that you will be able to put that stock heatshield back on. There definitely was a lot of hot air going up into my engine bay due to the CA header, expecially since the ceramic coating burned off within two weeks.

if you look at the stock header its quite short, like the ZZP shorty, but when you order the DP combo the header has longer tubes and a shorter DP
