Pacesetter mid tube headers? I know long tubes are the $hit but i am military and have to travel alot so i have to keep emissions in mind. They can reuse the stock cats and y-pipe, i just want to know if i can expect any gain? Later i may go with a larger y-pipe or is it a waste of money to do so?

The Pacesetter "midtubes" are actually shorties. Not worth the $ or hassle of installing. These won't give the same kind of gains a real midlegnth like Macs will.

Save your change untill you can throw on some LT's. A 100 shot should hold you over, and be emissions legal.
