right now i have a hooker 2 1/2 cat back w/ h pipe and flowmaster 2 1/2---2 chamber</P>


im planing onbuying some bbk shorty eq length headers soon</P>


my question is:::should i stick w/ my hooker cat back and h pipe or </P>


go w/ the bbk h pipe and cat back (does the bbk have any real hp gains over the hooker)</P>


im also getting 70mm bbk throttle body w/ bbk cold air, bbk alum underdrive pulleys</P>


also what advantage/disadvantage will i have if i put a 1 chamber flowermaster muffler</P>


could i even do that? thanks for any responses!</P>

A. Get equal tube, mid length...better yet, long tube....headers. You'll make a LOT more power under the curve.

B. Get an X pipe. H's can't even hold a candel to an X.

C. Ditch the Flows**tters and get...say, Magnaflow mufflers, or if you're cheap (like me), get DynoMax UltraFlows.

find a diff. header than bbk..they rust like crazy..jba or mac equal length 1 chamber all you will be doing is dodging tickets
70mm t/b? is this a stock engine?what year car?

right now could i put a 3" h pipe......the 1 chamber only comes in 3" in/out</P>


i have a 2 1/2 but i'd rather just get 3" anyway all the way back</P>


</P>


</P>

niceone4sure

</P>


all i can find for my year car is h pipes?</P>


</P>

i say dont get anything until your sure you are doing the 351 or 426. theheaders wont fit the small and big blocks. it would be a waste of $ to have them for a couple of months. for cat-back i would stay with what you have, it wont make a big differance. but go with longtubes!! for x pipes Bassani has tons of em. i actually have a similar question- what x-pipe will work with the MACs, do i need a custom one??? <IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">and what work and price goes into a custom x-pipe ??
