RE: Bottom End Torque Mods
Can you actually feel the loss of torque in the bottom end with long tubes?

you'll feel the loss with long tubes until you add a S/cer, then the gains will be even better.

I just installed my BBK Longtubes and OR/X and I can honestly say I feel a major difference in power bottom and top....car feels like its going to take off when I step on it, I definetly say go with Long Tubes

RE: Bottom End Torque Mods
Dunno if anyone makes 'em for the s197 Mustang but tri-y headers are often thought to make more power/torque down low while giving up a bit at the high end.

You will not be worried bout that after the whipple. You will want to be worried bout traction problem because of too much torque

RE: Bottom End Torque Mods
What if you are not planning on getting a blower? Will you feel a bottom end loss? I've read a lot of different opinions on this topic!
