I am about to install my new PYPES o/r H-pipe this coming week. I want to put longtube headers on this summer.....am i going to run into any issues/problems????

get you some new motor mounts while you are at it. you'll be slamming the L/T's into the frame all the time if you dont. i encountered that when i put my JBA's on, finally got steeda motor mounts, and never had that problem again.

thanks for that advice i was wondering the same thing

Are there going to be any issues connecting the headings to the pipes later?

Yes. An OEM style midpipe won't fit with longtubes. You need a longtube midpipe. Personally I'd just hold off until you can do the headers and then get the matching midpipe to go with them.

+1. that's exactly what i'm doing. i can't justifiy buying the x pipe now and then having a new tune done. then later on this year buying the long tubes, having to get rid of the x pipe i bought and buy another x pipe that fits, then get another tune for the long tubes and smaller x pipe.

DAMMIT MAN!!!!!!!! I just got my H-pipe in today too. But I am definitly planning on longtube headers in the future........looks like i'll have to return the pipe....... Sucks, was looking forward to waking up the neighbors!!!!!!!

Return the H-pipe and save for the longtubes cause you have to buy a corresponding midpipe for the longtube headers anyways...it'll save you $$$ in the long run...

It hurts, but thats what i'm going to do. I'm probably going to switch to American Racing or Kookslongtube/x-pipe combo. Leaning towards the American Racing ones.......

Those are 2 of the most popular choices of headers that i've seen on this forum so you will definitly be happy once all is said and done....
