Default exhaust choice

hey guys
i was looking for some input or advice on which exhaust system to buy for my 24 ft baja,i have a 615hp 509ci engine to put in it and i have everything to put back together except exhaust,i was going with the eddiemarine thunder package,it is $2200,they say at eddie marine that it would be a great choice for my setup and cam specs,then i talk to cp performance about some lightning headers and he tells me eddie marine is not a good choice and it is a little better than stock cast manifolds,he steered me towards imco powerflos which are expensive,so i want this headers but i know hear that they arent all stainless steel and won last long,it is stressing me out.
my exhaust exits under the swim platform so i need the low drop tail pipes regardless what i use,AND ALSO BLOW ABOUT $18000 ALREADY SINCE SEPTEMBER so there is an exhaust budget HELP

You wil find that CMI's make the most power on the Dyno.

If you need a manifold application, IMCO makes the most power.

Stellings look the best and any "full runner length" header will make good power.

Good luck with your search

I'd have bought the KE's if money wasn't a problem for me. The KE's really are that expensive, but I went with Dana's, mainly because I thought they looked better than similarly priced exhaust. I like the KE's because not everybody and their brother have them. I think they are cool as hell.

CMI e-tops might be a good choice and not cost as much as many other full header systems.

I like the EMI great price, whole lot better than stock. Look at the classifieds for used.
