X-tune headers?

http://www.protuninglab.com/ts-he-ccam82-50l-c.html

They've been mentioned in a thread here and there, appears atleast a couple people bought them, but there's not much in the way of details (specs), or any sort of post install follow-up.

Anybody have any experience with them on a F-body? What're the dimensions? How do they fit? How have they held up? Any noticeable increase in performance?

Any other reccomendations?
Looking for something fairly affordable for the '89 RS, the Y-pipe is rotting out and its daily driven so can't wait too long to purchase, no scouring classifieds. Factory TBI 305 currently, planning on a 350 in the not to distant future but only ever expect to maybe get in the neighborhood of 300fwhp max. Must have all emissions crap and appear functional.

Thanks

Re: X-tune headers?

Collectors look crappy, similar to edelbrocks.

Quality is porbably the same as the other imported "stainless" headers, which is poor.

No mention of pipe size, with it listed for 305 only, I bet they are small.
