Shorty header ???'s
hey guys...my name is blake and i'm kinda new to the forum....been lurking for some time but finally registered
so i got a question for ya
how much of a difference will shorties make on a 2001 gt 4.6 m5???
with a mac cai, superchip, flowmaster 40's,and ax-pipe
will it make much of a seat of the pants difference or should i save more for some long tubes
thanks,
blake

you will see no change with shorties, do long tubes or nothing at all. shorties=waste of time and money

i would just save the money your not going to see that big of a difference on either, and get an intake....but long tubes will def. give you more power

your best bet is to save up your money and buy long tubes off road mid pipe and a cat back. you will see some good power gains there

Long tubes will net you more HP.
Off-topic but I noticed you have "m5" next to your car description. Ive seen this other places. what does it mean.
