Default are LTs worth it w/o FI

im not planning to ever go FI, so would i really see the added benefit of getting LTs... and would they be worth all that trouble they are as far as install and ground clearance to name a few? thanks

No, they are not worth it, unless you do it yourself and plan to keep modding.

I believe they are well worth it. They really wake up the sound of your ride and reguardless of what a few select others think... they will help out a lot with your topend by expelling the exhaust quicker cutting down on back pressure. my car does 155 mph easily on the highway and thats with an extra 230lbs of meat sitting in the passanger seat.

Well the sound is better but for the cost you can spend your money wiser. Your car really could benefit the most from a PI head swap, and the $800- $1000 you spend on long tubes with your current set up will net you next to nothing in rwhp or et.

Yeah. I would say that you LT's are for those who are gonna keep modding their ride and are looking for the most out of their ride. If not, go with shorties.
