Default Long tube headers

Do you guys think long tube headers would give me the extra 2 tenths of a second I need to see high 11's?

Its gonna depend on the driver, but as far as power, it should be close...I personally think you will see very high 11's...why not go with a little smaller pulley?

I've already got the 3.4 pulley for 9.5lbs of boost. I just don't think I should push it on a stock engine.
