Default The day has come, ARH longtubes....

well not yet, but i should be getting my ARH O/R longtube X setup tomorrow
i'll be dropping my car off saturday morning for my tuner to install saturday, then be driving back down with my buddy (Raiden) and get both of our cars redynotuned sunday! hopefully i can get some good video and lots of pics to post up. Looking forward to this and especially looking forward to hitting the track on the 28th with this new setup to see if i can get a new personal best. I'll keep everyone posted on this as it unfolds and hopefully have everything done by sunday night.

Raiden has a vortech supercharged v6 (the one in my youtube video) with 365rwhp but will be shooting for more sunday as well. he finally picked up a set of stock rims and some m/h drag radials for the track so it should make this season a lot more fun than last year. stay tuned

well i got the headers in today. on my way to my parents house to pick them up. i'll post some pics of them once i get some. bad news is i'm not sure if my tuner will be able to get them in this weekend now due to snow in the mountains.... i'll find out later this afternoon if he'll be able to make it down.

Congrats man, you're gonna have to post up some sound clips once you get them installed. I'd also be interested to see how much HP you pick up from those. I want to get either the ARH LTs or the Kooks LTs down the line sometime...

I'm VERY interested in hearing your thoughts on the LT's. They were the first thing I did to my car so I haven't had the real SOTP's feel from them.

And you're doing some dragstrip testing.. excellent.

The ARH's are nice pieces. I just got the new 5.0 mustang mag in the mail a few days ago and they did an S197 LT test utilizing the Anderson MS test mule and seven different LT headers. To my surprise the MAC LT's made the most power! A bit more than Kooks and JBA's in third place. They didn't test the ARH's but they seem to be the same design as kooks.

Do you know what all mods the test mule had?
