Default BBK Longtubes with O/R H, what do you think?

Ok so i recently found someone who is selling their BBK long-tube headers and o/r h pipe for around 250. First of all, i have a 1994 GT that is nearly stock (gears, nitrous, air silencer delete..hehe, and K&N filter). I do plan on doing more mods in the future, which is why i was considering long tubes. I know ive heard they are a bitch to install, but ive also heard that BBK longtubes are the easiest of the bunch. As of right now, its more for the sound then the power because my motor isnt built to where i want it yet. In the future, it will be more about power and not sound, so i thought it would save time and effort in the future to just get the longtubes now. So does anyone have any thoughts on the matter? Are the long tubes a good idea? Bad idea? Should i get something else? Anything would be nice. Thanks.

Woops forgot to mention i already have flowmaster cat-back installed, so i really need at least a new midpipe so why not headers back while im at it.

thats a good deal on them! I would get them. It will help expell all that extra exhaust from the n20. And, like I always do, I buy for the future. I bought 30# injectors when I should have bought 24's, but, the were cheap, and I could grow into them, instead of out growing them too soon. yeah, they are kinda of a biatch to install, but they are worth it. you might lose a little torque on bottom end, but the extra horse up top will subdue that. and you can make it up later. the sound will be awesome btw.

go for it. I have BBK longtubes and an O/R H-pipe with flowmaster catback. People tell me it sounds really good. I have never heard it outside of the car.
