Default HEADERS HELP???

Team:

My current mods are in my signature and I am confused on whether to go with MAC midlenghts or HOOKER longtubes?

Which would be better bang for the buck.
I am also planning to go with F1 cam in future.

Thanks,

Adnan K

i went w/ hooker lt's, if you have any major mods in the future that is what i was told to do, go with the lt's.....in the short run you wont pick up much hp, but in the long run when you do more major mods like cam, heads etc., you'll pick up more out of lt's

Mac is good and so is Hooker. Mac is very easy to install for the most part. Don't know about them Hookers. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

i went with the FLP's but my second choice was the Hookers. the only reason i went with FLP's was due to their interchangeable cat's and my LOUDmouth. since you plan to do a cam i'd go with the long tubes.

I have HOOKER longtube headers, Hooker offroad Ypipe, stock exhaust and a cutout, with a TR224/224 109LSA cam, and it sounds AMAZING, i love the hooker headers, but then again, I havent tried the others.

Thanks,
