Default Long Tube Header Suggestions

I've been toying with the idea of putting a Magnaflow true Xpipe, without the cats, "off road use only" pipes on my stang, BUT...Before I do, I want to know what some of the long tube header options you guys have installed are. How much louder will it make the car? What are you guys seeing for performance gains?Are headersa better option than the quicker xpipe install,and will there be a significant difference in performance. I am also taking into consideration the installation of a Paxton S/C with the air to air intercooler in the spring.

The o/r x pipe will give you some gains, not as much as the LTs will when you have the s/c on there though

Get the long tubes. Putting them on now will give you a nice platform to build off of.

MAC LTs are inexpensive and make very good gains. HCM has incredible deals on the MAC products

06Saleen3V, would you care to PM me when you receive the LT's? I am curious as to how they fit and if there are any problems. Thanks!
