Shorties or Long tube
I currently dont have an h pipe in my car. I'm having one made. i know a few of the differences between the short and long headers
Shorties More snap louder long tube: more high end power Just wanted to make sure im right, as well what does everone recomend? the car only has cat back on it currently |

personally i would go long tube, With short tubes you get better low end, and with long tubes you get better top end power, also long tubes sound better too!
but i guess at the end of the day it depends on what your doing with your car.. Long tubes give you the Best Power Short Will Pass Emmissions :teeth: |
Dont need to worry about emmissions :thumb1:
gotta love an 86...lol |
sweet.
go long tubes than! |
STR on an 86 will probably make the car faster,. You lost low end torque with the LT's. I had an 86 before the turbo car and I went with a mac kit. 1 5/8 LT's 2.5" ORH-pipe, flowmaster mufflers and 2.5 polished tails. Personally I would do the mac 2.5" to 3" flare taipipes for that agressive look.

Whats STR? I will lose low end torque with the long tubes but it will go faster...is that what you are saying? Did you like your setup? The cat back with stainless tips is all new last year. Im just looking for header options then H pipe to fit |
the loss of low end torque isn't noticeable,
long-tubes all the way, you won't regret it! |
I think im leaning more towards the long tubes... If i already had the H pipe i would probably go shorties tho

i previously have unequal shorty , equal lenth shorty , summit/Flowtech LT's ( bullshit) and now i have just installed BBK long tube and it s very easy to fit , louder sound than the Flowtech . It worth the cost of a good quality of Long tube .
Fitted to the Prochamber , Very DEEEEP sound . As for the hp/tq increasment , i will see tomorow a the track if i gain something ( or win something :D) |
