SLP headers help me out
SLP headers help me out i have OBX racing headers i go t off of ebay for about 450 and the slp are way higher than that.but my question is are all headers the same?? the reason i'm asking is that i'm thinking about going with slp just to say my exhaust is slp does it really matter let me know what you think ??
go with mac midlengths,
torque > horsepower (:
if you dont really care about performance go with slp, they dont flow much better than the stock headers that came stock

I have macs and I'm wanting to get LT's. Anyone want a trade???
IMO, if you have OBX just run them until they fall apart. No sense in buying another header just for a name. IMO SLP isn't anything to brag about.

The main problem w/Macs are the little 2.5" collectors.
Yea I'm not gonna argue with this but I'm not gonna agree. If you can dish out some evidence other than I've ridden in one car with lt's and one car with mac's that would be cool but it's just not making much sense to me right now...
i gained about 25whp from adding macs and an off road y pipe, i had a broken ect sensor and wouldnt hesitate to say the car gained another 10hp after i fixed that.
my formula dyno'd at 323whp/337wtq with macs and a lid, my SS with an rpm 3 cam made 378whp/392wtq with high flow cats. 50whp is a lil strech, but if you put a new lid and filter on and changed the plugs at teh same time your stock dyno could have been like 280 and with the headers and new plugs and stuff its possible
i got my macs used for $200 with an off road y cant beat that. i have pace setters right now and have no complaints but theres nothing wrong with macs in my opinion

Ok I see what your saying. I was getting the feeling that you were saying there was no reason to go with lt's when Mac's gave you more torque. I picked up .3 and 3mph just by adding my pacesetter lt's. I to got ceramic barely used headers and y to my door for $200 so I thought it was a hell of a deal. Pacesetter's y pipe IMO is a bit cheap but hey it does the job just fine. I just don't like how it's 2 piece pipe.
sorry i should have been a lil more clear about that, i prefer mid lengths because i like the low end torque for daily driving. your going to get more top end performance from LT's but i like torque 
i never really tracked my cars and was uaually door to door with a car with long tubes on the street anyways
lol you know your gonna eventually go with duals anyways so id say thats not a big problem
