My understanding it no, the long tubes replace the cats and you would have to use the shorter x-pipe.
If you want to keep what you already have you would need to use the equal length tuned shorties for best performance.
Headers.

The BBK catted X-pipe is specificly made to fit with the BBK LT headers and they will not fit the stock headers. Nor will the LT headers fit without the BBK x-pipe (catted or not). That's why they are called long tube headers.

The BBK catted x-pipe is for factory manifolds or shorty headers. He already has the BBK catted x-pipe installed with the factory manifolds.
The BBK x-pipe made for the long tubes DOES NOT have cats. That is where the long tube comes in.

If you want to install the LT's you need to change the X-Pipe for the Shorty one with Cats (I assume you still want the Cats).
I installed the BBK LTs in my car like one month ago.
