Default headers

i have shorties on there now but i do want to go long tube. will i gain any torque or will it be more in the power range.the ones on there are summit but the xpipe thats on there hangs way to low, and i dont like it. ill replace it all when the flange finally breaks on the one side

i hear u lose some low end torque but gain high end hp. my car has too much low end and not enough high end so im going for long tubes when i redo my exhaust since my mac shorties are the crappiest quality EVER and my exhaust hangs too low too

i just did a long tube header install, i noticed a little better low end, maybe it was response, i only drove it for a few minutes.

i had headman shorties on there before

i also have cutouts on there, havent tried then yet, the exhaust is still going thru to the tail pipes, i will be testing it out with out when i get teh passenger side done
