long tubes or not......
I'm in the same boat,so I should get the coated instead of painted???
and what all will I need for a trual dual setup? so far I have
headers
2 dynomax bullets
clamps
reducers
hangers
gaskets
and thinking about using the pipeing from the stock exhaust...

i have pacesetter lts with y-pipe. 10 hour install, no major problems. Love them.
shortys are a waste of time. if I was gonna put shortys on I'd just wait till I pulled the motor for a rebuild.

you want them coated to keep the under hood temps down, and keep from melting electrical things. and, alot of the paints are just to keep them from rusting in the boxes, and burn off, and turn to chalk.
Shorties are over rated.

I installed shorties, and I'm disappointed, put them in 2 years ago. If I had know then what I know now longtubes would have gotten installed. Sorties aren't that much cheaper anyway.
long tubes arent going to make your car any louder by themselves. going from the stock setup with an e-cutout after the cat, to longtubes with an e-cutout after the cats, my car actually may have gotten quieter. Now that i cut the cats though, my car is loud enough with the cutout open to make young children wet their pants.
as far as gains go with my longtubes im not sure. it definitely chopped a few tenths off my quarter mile time. the only place you really feel any difference though is above 4k rpms at WOT. before my power curve would start flattening out at about 4.5k, and be falling off after 5 it seemed. with the headers now, it will pull right to 6k.

hahah nice!!! my car seems to pull non-stop never feels like its falling. its a strong running motor. i just want better then stock and i want the sound my car is to quiet. anything i get will be better then what i have now!!! money is an issue. like i said b4 i am getting a ring for my girl!
