IMO if you're going to go through the trouble of changing the headers I would really get some long tubes. Only way to make a power increase and get that good sound.

are long tubes just bolt on or do you have to cut the pipes back?

+1 for jba. If you search the threads over and over again people love them. Dont go the shorty route.

I have MAC LTs and they went in smoothly (well, mostly smoothly...). American Racing LTs are nice, too.

My ARH were striaght bolt on like any other LT out there. There will provide mroe gains over the shorties.

PS lose the TB spacer

Yeah, if you're gonna get headers do the LTs, shorties are a waste of money IMO.

And +1 on the TB spacer.

shorties suck ***; all they do is look nice. I had them on my old 90 GT and noticed -0-, and those were a lot less expensive than the s197 shorties are.
