average hp gain on longtubes
what kind of hp gain u guys had with installing longtubes and true duals. Im planning on installing qtp headers with true duals over the axle. Its gonna cost quite a bit for the installation so im trying ot find out what kind of gains would i see. THe install includes a dyno tune and dynatech cats

I don't have any numbers but i was wondering the HP gains myself cause i installed some along with everything else so i won't notice a difference from the headers alone.
Also yeah you should install them yourself it's pretty easy. Easier then i expected as long as you jack the car up enough they should slip right in through the bottom like mine did. Driver side will go in from the top and the passenger side has to go in through the bottom atleast this is what i figure out. But if it's jacked up they both go in from the bottom really easily. Mine are pacesetter too.....

The crappy Hypertech "tune" isn't what you'll want. I never felt any gains from mine, and I'm sure the "tune" it is capable of is very basic. You'll need your timing advanced a little and the car leaned out a little as well. Hypertech also doesn't delete codes, and you'll need to delete the ones that'll pop up from the install.
