I got the JBAs on the special. They look pretty under the hood, but I
have been a little disappointed in the performance increase. I can't
detect any increase. As far as sound, mine are quieter than the stock
manifolds. I though that they went on fairly easily and so far no
leaks. They did stop some pinging that I was having.
If I was doing it over again I would get the Mopar headers. Sure they
cost more, but by the time you figured in the cost of the Y pipe which
is part of the Mopar headers, the Mopar headers are cheaper, plus there
is a performance increase with them. So far it looks like you have to
change the Y pipe to see an increase in performance with the JBAs.
