longtube headers

03stanggg · October 31st, 2008, 02:14 PM

Can you fit longtube headers on a stock exhaust system? I really like the idea of keeping my car looking as stock as possible with some hidden bolt ons... just wondering if this would work.

ya, pretty sure it could be done wit some cutting, but why not also change the midpipe and at lesat a gt take off catback too? no one will know its modded still

Sounds like a good idea... what kinda mid pype would you suggest? I assume it will still be a single exhaust?

ItaliStang · October 31st, 2008, 02:27 PM

you could always get a full exhaust and just have dumps instead of tips out the back...

You would have to get a shorty midpipe If your gonna buy a new one.

redo the whole exhaust, don't waste money on headers then not do a damn thing to the rest of it.

thats like buying a hooker and just watching her watch you.

lol well that kills the stock look.... which you may think is weird for me to doo but thats how i want it

then get dumps.

stock or not, it doesn't matter till you get it on the track for the first time and then everyone will know what your running.

Long tube headers on stock Y-pipe will not work, because of the extra length in LONG TUBE headers, hence the word "Long". you have to either:
1. Buy mid pipes that will accommodate the extra long tubs . if you do so, then say good bye to stock look.
2. Custom make them at an exhaust shop.you can go either H-pips or divorced. i prefer divorced personally.

as for keeping the stock look, i think you should consider going dual. it just looks better at the back. that's again my personal opinion.

GOOD LUCK with whatever you decide on
