Default American Racing Long Tubes question

Do I need to purchase it with a mid pipe or can I get it without the mid pipe and use an off road prochamber for long tubes? Every link I checked only had it with the x or h pipe

even if it's the shorter one designed for long tubes? or was it designed specifically for the mac long tubes? either way it's fine, but is there anywhere that has the ARH long tubes without the h or x that would make them cheaper? I don't want to order two mid pipes if i don't need to

If you have to buy a new midpipe, I will buy your prochamber. Sounds like a plan.

i don't own it yet, thats why i wanted to know if i could buy the long tubes without the mid pipe. Otherwise i'm spending more than i need to. I love the sound of the prochamber

usually every LT has its own midpipe, one probably wont fit with the other

that makes sense, I guess i'll just stick with the off road prochamber and if i want it louder then i'll get the headers. The headers might be too loud for a daily driver around here anyway

EDIT: why am i making excuses? i want those headers, i guess i'll be going with an h pipe

I am purchasing the American Racing Headers soon as well. I love the sound of my o/r H but realize that I have to let it go when I get the LT's...These headers make pretty decent power gains as well so you wont just be getting sound. The best combo is the LT's with the o/r H. When are you planning on ordering them?

I think Brenspeed's choice of headers is very limited and poor. I think if you're going to spend that much money on headers, might as well get good ones and Brenspeed doesn't sell and good headers. Don't get me wrong, I love Brenspeed, but not for headers
