Default For those running ARH Kooks or JBA LT Headers

1)How are the underhood temps?
2)Have you thrown any codes due to the LT's?

Thanks, Mike

My underhood temps are fine no problems plus I'm running a small 3.4 supercharger pulley and a 10% OD crank pulley and a chrome alternator. I'musing kooks headers.

I thew codes with brenspeeds tune every once in a great while. The 2 months I have been using ST motorsports tune I haven't thrown a code (of course it is summer now)

I have JBA's and have had lots of trouble throwing codes. "Slow Response from 02 sensor". Local shop finally got the tune right, and no more problems. They make a lot of power though.

I'm trying to decide on longtubes or a new driveshaft or coil packs as my next big mod.
how much hp/tq do LTS give with an O/R X and axlebacks?

Great point. The headers are not going to throw any codes by themselves. It will be in the tune if they do.

I have JBA Ceramic coated L/T's with Bassani GT500 3" off road all the way back and I have no heat issues with 20 psi...

Others will of course disagree, but personally, I don't think you really get all that much until you start pushing some boosted power. I didn't go to 3" everything until I broke 700 hp.

Should be in the nieghborhood of 20-30 hp/tq.

Thanx for the responses so far sounds like I cant really go wrong with any of the 3. Now all I have to do is decide.
