Kleeman Log Style - Performance

Guys I have been trying to search for info on this but very little seems available.
Anyone have any first hand experience with them?
Do they require welding...?
What is the actual performance increase?
I am reading and or hearing that on top of the EC tune, I can expect to gain anywhere from 20-35whp from the Klee logs alone.
I already received my revised tune (in 18 mins after emailing Jerry btw!!!) to compensate for the Klees, but before I pull the trigger on them, I thought asking around wouldn't hurt.



I know that lth's provide better performance gains, but for the money, I don't know that I can go wrong if in fact the minimum gain to be had is going to be 20whp with the Klee logs.....

Thanks guys

They LOOK very similar actually, but are very different.

Shane, you already know LTH's are the way to go for max performance gains. But if you can get the Kleeman logs for a decent price. Its not a bad investment. Just take into account install costs as well. If you are unhappy with them, it will cost you a some coin to remove them.

Yeah I think I just needed someone to tell me this! Was feeling so good to maybe pay a measly $500 for say 20whp worst case and to top it off it was a Kleeman product.
But in the back of my mind I was thinking that $500 will ultimately be $1000.

if you want a new set, I knew of a dealer that still had them in stock in UK. email me if you're interested, I can help you locate if they're still available.
