Mac's VS. SLP long tubes
 
I have a set of Macs with the orp and cat pipe. the cats need replacement and I need to run cats. I have someone who wants to trade me the Mac set-up for his SLP setup with cats and a small amount of cash. is this worth the difference to go with the SLP's? I will be running a B1 cam and only want to do this job once. give me some opinons and hp differences please

Do a search, and you will find some interseting real world comparo's that have been done already, bottom line the Macs especially on higher horse applications will out pull the LT's.

SLP's will give you more power under the curve than the MACS. Peak will be about the same.

This is what others have noticed anyway.

There's no doubt that I'd keep the Macs over the SLP LT's. It's not worth the swap at all.
