buying headers according to sound is kindda like buying a crate engine because it's painted a certain color.

go for the best design that you can afford or run legally

longtube, mid, shorty
stainless, ceramic, painted

well said.

The best bang for the buck are the pacesetters! If you have the money go stainless. What you need to think about is what type of Ypipe your going to have with the Longtube headers because thats going to make a difference in the sound. Either ORY or Catted. ORY with the LM is going to be pretty damn loud and raspy
