Default good longtubes?

I was looking for some longtubes for my 93GT and have only found a few. BBK would be my choise but the price is def. up there. Hooker is the same way and isnt even coated Then flowtechs, which are really cheap and I heard suck ***. What do you guys think?

I have bbk longtubes. Putting in the headers wasn't that hard but my h pipe didn't fit right. Luckily I work at a muffler shop and was able to adjust it to fit.

BBK also makes a h-pipe that is specific to their longtubes. I am running that also.

So it looks like BBK is the brand to go with when it comes to longtubes...?
