Default Long tube headers for street/strip. Recommendations?.

BBK, JBA, stainless steel, ceramic, etc. What do you think is a good value?

You will need a mid pipe and tune with the long tubes. Maybe you can find a place that will sell all together? If you are having someone install, ask them what they prefer.

I got ARH 1 7/8. You don't need something with primaries that large so a 1 5/8 or 1 3/4 will work just fine.

Probably the most important question is, what's your budget? There are header/midpipe combinations out there from $400 to $1200 and everything in between.

I have pypes on my 06gt and they fit perfectly. Been on the car for over 6 years with no issues.
