Default B&B Header?

Was browsing the in-tar-net and found this site: http://www.300zxstore.com/bbhefor35.html
Never seen or heard of these headers before. Anyone heard anything about this company's parts, or maybe what kind of hp numbers these put out?

Also, for the sake of not opening another thread, I've got a supercharger question... I know that to run a turbo setup safely, compression should be changed and new cams installed... Does the same apply with a supercharger? What parts should I invest in before buying a supercharger? I am leaning towards a blower simply because its cheaper, and I could probably install it myself (twin-turbo is too complicated for me - i'd have to pay a shop to do it).

Thanks,
Bryan

Wow! B&B is making headers already??? They big in the F-body and Corvette market for exhaust and headers. Really good stuff that's light and not too loud. I think one of the mods has the exhaust on their car already--been doing massive reading since I joined --but I don't remember which one.

I have pics, but from the back of the car (unless you get underneath it) it looks totally stock. I know Avalon Racing has pics of the exhaust itself on their website. Might want to check it out.

As for the gains, weight savings alone was in the 20 pound range. But for actual hp, I couldn't tell you for sure because I didn't do a baseline before. But right now I'm sitting at 240 at the wheels in 90 degree F temps. I'll make some calls when I can about the headers and see what kind of performance info I can dig up.
