IDK personally but my exhaust shop told me that they difference between shorties and LTs is only noticeable at like Very high horrsepower ranges. Like above 500. Also if you ever plan on lowering your car I would reccomend shorties since with LTs you will probably scrape everything.

and what makes you think those are any better than pacesetter

the only reason kooks are better is because they are stainless, but you pay for that

shorties are worth nothing, if your gonna get them you might as well stay stock

how many threads do you see with people going "my flanges are warped on my hookers" "i have a bad weld on my jethot"....not many. Plus, I think they fit a little better. However, for the $$, the pacesetters are definately worth it. I have pacesetters, and thats because i couldnt justify another $200 on something thats going to perform the same

If you need more convincing try a search, Header FAQ are quite possibly the most common questions ever asked on here

Not only are the Kooks stainless, they fit like the perfect condom.
