im going nuts debating over which headers to order. ive got about 700 bucks burning a hole in my pocket. heres my dilemma, i dont really care about emissions, as long as there is no SES light, i dont want to scrape on everything with them, and i dont want sucky headers. i was thinking hooker or jet hot longtubes, but i dont know of a ypipe that will fit them well and not be too low. are their any longtubes that tuck up under the car well, and have a good ypipe for them?

 

Regarding the Jet Hot pipes (they're what I want) here is what the Jet Hot guy told me:

" www.mufflex-performance.com has a ypipe that will work with our headers, and any ypipe you find that will work with Hooker headers will work with ours. "

He also said their y pipe would be out this summer.

 

anyone have pics of the mufflex ypipe installed, or anyother longtube/ypipe setup? i need help to make a good decision.

 

just get a custom made y-pipe or run true duals. i wouldn't get anything other than hooker long tubes or the jet hot long tubes.

 

i dont know any reputable shops that would make a y pipe, much less a mandrel bent one. anyone know any in the Dallas-Fort Worth area?

 

go to the texas forum on ls1.com and post. you should be able to find one for sure. there are plenty of them.

 

Depends on how loud you want it.
I am putting Flowtech Purple hornies on mine, that is a header muffler that bolts on the collector and straight glasspack with a 3 inch turndown. It will be LOUD. I will see if I can live with it or not, I may have a local shop do up a true dual setup.

 

TPIS makes great long tubes for the LT1 with Y pipes with or without cats. They guarantee better ground clearance than any others. They are more pricey than the Hooker/Jet-Hot LTs but not as high as FLPs.

 

hands down, get LT's

 

any pics of the TPIS longtubes? any experience with them?

 

quit being a pu$$y and just get the jethots w/ the mufflex

 

nobody like the FLP's anymore or are they just too much money

 

I don't have a pic but I got the coated Hooker Long Tubes and a 4 inch mufflex Y-pipe with a 3 inch reducer and it bolted up beautifully!
