I just put BBK ceramic equal length shorties on mine, a 92. Very happy w/ them. The reason I stayed w/ the shorties is b/c I still have to go through emissions every 2 years so my stock cats have to go back on. If I had put L/T's on, I would have had to buy a new catted mid pipe as well as new uncatted one. More than I wanted to spend.

I have not seen that as being an issue. I also have the FFRP wires w- angled boots. So far so good.
