    Id say not. I suppose that is all relative, but i have only ever noticed drone if i ride next to another truck with exhaust and our tones start battling each other. But yeah no drone other than that.

    Got to drive it today...super aggressive when I get on it, it will scream when I throttle hard. Driving in the cab is still very pleasant too though. No drone, really isn’t. I heard my 37’s over the exhaust if I’m just cruising. Hear the engine a little more if I encounter an incline or something else that raises rpms. Then, if I punch it to pass, everyone around knows I’m there and I’m moving. Couldn’t be happier. Solid quality in kooks, the corsa really melted our drone. Not the only combo that would work obviously, but I can personally attest to this one. I’ll get some drive by videos and in cab videos up over the weekend.

    Am I seeing this right? Youre getting about 50hp gain?

    Just under 40 with headers and tune over previous tune and stock. I was hoping for 40 but in back of my mind didn’t really think we would get there.

    That is correct.
    Just looking at the Dynos comparing JBA and ARH LT headers, the ARH give better results.
    ARH also seem much better quality and welds.
    But there are guys that have gotten great headers with JBA, then I have seen some that are pretty bad.
