i was gonna get the bbk shorties, but i have read longtubes will give more hp.
and also i did not want to spend the amount of money i saw longtubes are compared to the shorties. do you guys think these would be alright.

LT's are the only way to go, most are worth anywhere from 15-25 rwhp, just make sure of emissions legality where you're at (I live in CA which basically means I can't have LT's). Shorties aren't really worth doing, they're only good for about 5 rwhp at best. I might do a set of shorties someday after blower/heads/cams, but only so I can say I did headers. And as Lizzy said, do a search here on LT's, there's a buttload of threads on the subject and from that you should be able to figure out which brands people are most happy or unhappy with in terms of fitment and function. For you avatar pic, go to the blue tool bar toward the top of the screen (it's right on top of your first post for this thread), and click on "User CP" (far left). You should be able to figure it out from there, it's somewhat self explanatory.

I am totally against BBK and Mac products but that's just me. I am a firm believer that its ARH, Kooks, or GTFO, but most of us cobra guys are. Shorties are a waste, you are pretty much taking your money and lighting it on fire if you buy shorties lol. If you don't have the money or don't want to save for a set of ARH or Kooks, try and get SLP's. I have seen them on sale before at a couple different website and sometimes you can find a good deal on them from EBAY. But if on a tight budget go with Mac over BBK. I have alot of experience with different brand of headers over the years with all my stangs. Especially since you live in IL, if your car is your DD the road salt will eat up them BBKs and Macs. A stainless Steel header will hold up better with all the road salt we get.

In reality any gains on an N/A New Edge from Long Tubes is negligible. Your stock exhaust is not your choke point in air flow and is capable of flowing whatever your car with bolt ons can throw at it, especially with a cat-back. You will see 15-20RWHP on boosted applications for the most part however.
Kenne Bell even claims based on their dyno experience long tubes net you 0 HP until your in the 500-600s.
