Does anyone have any information or any kind of good/bad feed back on these?

Thought about doing headers on my truck and keep bouncing back and forth between shortys and longtube. Wanna do a cat delete and am still indecisive about an X pipe DI/DO or Y pipe SI/DO magnaflow. Looking for more of the low and mid range power more than I am top end. Looking at the Vararam intake also.

Might as well keep the factory logs.

Yea that’s what I kinda figured to, doesn’t look like they do much other than have a bigger diameter, seen them and was curious about them, hadn’t seen any info on them that I was able to find.

Go with longtubes, you wont be disappointed.

I’ve been leaning more and more to the longtube pacesetter headers. I haven’t been able to do a lot of research on what would be a better set up though. A Y pipe or with SI/DO or X pipe with DI/DO. I’m not planning on trying any kind of racing or heavy hauling it’s mostly just because I want to, so really I think for me it boils down to appearance and sound quality. I don’t want something obnoxiously loud but I do want a deep tone and something that’s gonna let you know hey that’s a HEMI. However on the flip side in the long run and future I’m wanting to try a supercharger on it. Not looking for any kind of crazy boost. Now I’m just thinking out loud here. Thanks for the input
