Stillen makes a great product. I would def go with the stillen headers over the other choices on here. Im not sure what the difference is between the SS headers and the ceramic headers..besides the obvious. Does anyone know if there is a weight difference?

You got my answer on FreshAlloy. Haven't changed. If you want the Best only Crawford will do. Borla=No Power Increase. Stillen, Be careful, poor customer service reputation.

Stillen does have poor customer service, but they usually have a great product so you dont have to deal with them.

I have called them a few times with questions and they were great. From what I hear as long as you buy from them they are great.

I went with the Strup headers.. I really like them. My next choice would have been the Crawford headers, but I didn't have to spend an arm and leg for the install.

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
I went with the DC Sports ceramic. Originally bought them for my early 03 sedan and ran them about 20K with no issues. I removed them and now they are on my 05 coupe. Only cost me about $400 for the headers and $200 for the install. May not be the best, but cost less than Nismo, easier to install than Crawford, run cooler than stainless, and provide decent gains. Why would you want tp pay for stainless anyway, you can't see them from engine bay.
