Default Can I go wrong???

In case you haven't seen - FLP is having a fall sale, and since I am in the market for Long Tubes I figured I'd give them a try. Can I go wrong for $1150 to my door? I have done a lot of reading about all the LTs so I know there can be some problems, but thats a heck of a price. Are there really any performance difference between the FLP and SLP headers or Grotts??

Also, will the FLPs work with SLP bolt in subframe connectors?

Thanks

I hear those FLP's bang pretty bad, also the Hookers and TPIS headeres fit great and there less expensive. Time to do a little more research buddy.

But from what I've read the banging problem is an installation issue. I have searched my butt off on every forum about these. I like the SLPs but I need cats and ORpipes, thats why I was looking at FLPs. Easy to switch between the two.
