Default Which of these 2 Headpipes is better and why...

Hey guys, My new SGS is coming... stuck on a truck in Chicago due to weather... but it's on the way Maybe be here Tuesday.

I've ordered a Performance Machine AC.
I've decided on Rush Big Louie Mufflers.
Ive decided on a Power Vision.

Headpipe comes down to 2 choices

1. Jackpot Stainless Ceramic Coated 2/1/2 Price 578.
2. Rush High Output True Duals (They have a Collector - Scavenger)

The Rush are a little less expensive, but not enough to matter. One thing I notice is the Rush comes with its on heat shields and has the appearance of
2 distinct pipes. The Jackpot reuses Stock Heat shields and looks stock..
hmmmm

Which do you all think will perform, last, sound and look better ????

Thanks

Jackpot Stainless Ceramic Coated 2/1/2 will perform better (2-1-2), radiate less heat (Ceramic Coated) and last longer (Stainless) than Rush High Output True Duals.

If it were me (and it's not).........My opinion is to go with the Rush headpipe. I like the look better than the stock look of the Jackpots. They are ceramic lined and they have the scavenging feature (collector). As an aside, Rush is made here in Indiana and it puts my fellows Hoosiers to work

They are both Ceramic coated, and Im pretty sure both Stainless steel
the Jackpot is an Xpipe almost where the Rush is a Dual with a collector added...

2-1-2 but why not V&H Power Duals 2-1-2 at a lower cost?

Just because my research tells me these 2 would be the premium choice.

The Premium choice would be MGS or Rinehart TD or S&S Power Tune Duals in my opinion. I have always liked Rush but thought of them as a budget pipe.

To each his own but... The Moco has long utilized V&H for performance development. Not sure why your application requires ceramic coated headers but V&H offers some pretty good stainless Power Duals.
