Theres enough guys that have go fast parts that could do a great comparison if they wanted to take the time to get organized. Get a few cars with different header combos and swap all the headers out on a single car to see what the performance differences are for a comparo.
3 dyno runs with stockers, 3 with kleeman, 3 with mbh, and whoever else joined the party. thats what I loved about the DSM community. One time a bunch of guys got together and ran a comparo on like 8 different intake manifolds all in the interest of information gathering and sharing with the community.

Who would be insane enough to swap them out just for a test? They are a LOT more difficult to get to than a DSM car.
For me, there's things that are important, as well as the max HP:
1. How's the entire torque-band effected?
2. Quality. What kind of steel used? Will they last?
3. Fit and finish. I do not have a welder and tube-bender
4. Who's making them? (some good ol' boys with a passion here in the US or some ladies in a factory overseas...yep, I'm old-fashioned and care about our economy).
5. Customer service: yes, if I have a problem or issue, I want to be able to talk to someone TODAY!
6. Delivery. Can I actually expect to get them when promised? (don't wanna hear about "my cat died" or "My sister got impregnated by the neighbor kid..")
And that's all for now.

I have had my kleemans on for about 6-8 months. They are still in great shape and I have not had a single issues with them. They fit perfect when I installed them. And the difference in power was definitely noticeable even without a tune. After the tune, you could really feel the difference in power. Plus they made my exhaust sound great! To me, they have been a nice modification.
