Hey all,

Ive got a couple questions for you guys that did your own buildups

First how hard is it to install the FRPP shorties? Can the motor stay in the car?

Second, if you were going to super charge is it even worth doing the shorties?

I have a set of shorties but I want some input before deciding.

Thanks

shorties give you maybe 2-3 hp over stock from what people say... you might not get any at all..

Yeah thats what Ive heard, but that is N/A. I was wondering if there are more gains forced induction, and if so are the gains worth the effort to install.

Hey man is that a 21st TSC patch in your avitar? I love my shorties especially the way they sound with my flows and o/r h-pipe...

I had the FRPP shorties and they really did not do that much in power. When I did the tubular K member I went with L/T's and had noticable "seat of the pants" gains especially bottom end!

I still don't even know if I'm going to waist my time....

Actually thats my daughter in the avitar, and I believe it was 21st TSC, I will have to ask her.

have you purchased the shorties yet?? if not, i would say don't waist your time and just do LT's. Harder install yes, but will see alittle more power than shorties. Also will make the exhaust deeper in sound. Plus when you do FI, they will flow alot better.

Armydad

Yeah I have all the parts, I'm def NOT going LT. Too much money and trouble. What I really want to know is how much of a pain in the *** are they to install. If its not a bad job and I can pick up 5 ponies fine, but if its a day long knuckle buster pain in the sack job, I think I can forgo the 5 extra hp.

Were you S/C or N/A at the time? Does it make a diff?
