There are huge flow advantages with long tubes. Some say you almost gain nothing with shorties.

Dont know if LT's can bolt up to a pro-chamber, depends on its length.

As for the pictures, there are two ways. First of all you need the picture in some sort of file format(transfered from your camera). You then need to have it hosted by something like photobucket.com or imageshack.us . At that point you need to find the link to the file through that site and put it the following code, WITHOUT SPACES. [IMG] YOUR LINK HERE [/IMG]. Another way is to host it to your profile on this site and link it from there.

Longtubes are definatley your best bet for exhaust. i LOVE mine...its a noticeable differance for sure. Don't cheap out for shorties.

And no they wont bolt up to your prochamber...you'll need a shorty midpipe.

+1, I'm not 100% sure but I don't think Mac has a Pro Chamber for L/T's anymore

Any suggestions for a replacement for my prochamber that would bolt up to some long tubes? I'm looking for an awesome sound and added performance.
Right now i have stock headers with the pro chamber and magnaflow catback and it sounds good but i want "meaner"!

O/R means off-road which means no cats.
