well are there any headers that can fit on the stang without buying an x or h pipe? because if I could save some money there that would be nice. and headers also increase performance more right......
Shorties, but they are useless.

You have to buy a shortie X for your LTs.

I have the BBK O/R X and love it. Here is a clip of what your car would sound like with the BBK o/r X, LTs, and magnaflow catback. I had the cams in at this time, but you can't hear them when I am acclerating by/revving it up: (of course you can definatly hear em at idle)

They just add VERY little to a boltons only car.

You MIGHT see 1-2 WHP with the shorties, but you should see 10+ with the LTs.

When I purchase:

BBK CAI
BBK full length headers
BBK short o/r h pipe
Magnaflow Magnapack exhaust

For my 2000 gt, how much would I notice the increase in performance?

BTW I'm going with bbk because it's cheaper
BBK h pipe sounds like ***! Seriously, ***! Don't get it!

I have BBK LT headers, BBK high flow H, and Force II catback and everyone tells me my car sounds bad ***. I love it, but get whatever YOU like.

And btw...I noticed you said the o/r H....that's the one without cats right? I have the one with high flow cats so maybe it's a lil different.
I've only heard o/r h BBK and it sounds horrible. It's quite possible, however, that there's a big diff b/t catted and o/r.

A catless H pipe is a catless h pipe. It might slightly vary between companies but theres not much design to them. It's the whole setup not just one component that makes the sound.




Also, youll notice something, but not much. Only thing i noticed was the supercharger.

DOnt get the BBGay Hot Air Intake. Look for a used JLT if your worried about price. Their out there.
+1 for JLT.
