Default Long tube header question

i was just wondering what kind of long tube headers/ory would i need to buy to have them fit correctly with my flowmaster catback. One last question does anyone know if this setup sounds any good? i really hate rasp and I don't want the setup to be loud, I have my cutout in the catback if i want it loud. I know the hooker catback sounds good on a setup like this but I don't want to spend $350 for a new catback. And my car is a 98 SS M6. Thanks

Man from all the headers that I did I would say that Dynatech were that best. But they arent cheap. However they do give more clearance than other header systems. I found them on Thunderracing, for about $1,600 with Cats. Defenitly less if your getting an offroad Y-pipe.

did you try hooker headers or the pacesetters before the dynotechs? and ive researched that a lot of people like kooks but I just need to know if the pipes will line up with my catback and of course I would get the long tubes and the ory from the same company.

they all fit together, or are supposed too, best advice is to get the headers that you want then get a y-pipe made. just go to a muffler shop and let them do it. thats GARUNTEES the fit will be perfect

As long as your cat-back has'nt been modified most all the systems should fit I obviously prefer the ARH brand. But I do understand the need for an inexpensive alternative. If you have any questions about our product shoot me a PM

If I didn't get my full exhaust/LTs setup for 400 bucks, I woulda saved the coin for some ARHs... Good stuff there man!
