these headers are a great investment... heard many good things about them... has substantial gains for both rwhp and rwtq.. they produce a higher amount of torque than the shorties...

i have a question tho, and sry to hijack... but i wanted to do a true duals set up off my the pacesetter lt's... can i do a x-pipe with the lt's to run two mufflers? I have two single chamber mufflers i want to use... 3" inlet/outlet

they are definately worth the investment. the install is pretty much straight up. i installed mine from the bottom wasn't too bad.

girls - i don't see why you couldn't do a custom exhaust coming off the collectors with either an x or h-pipe into those single chambers. bet it would sound mean as hell.

Me and Girlsdoitright, have the same exact idea, I want to buy the Pacesetters LTs and dual them with an X pipe with dual Magnaflows.. how possible and how much of a pain in the *** would this be?

or for better torque should I keep them a single exit? I'm not going for sound. better, performance. and also sorry to highjack.

I think there should still be a fair amount of torque gain with them being true duals. I just want it to flow better. (plus i already have TWO mufflers and i wanna use them, lol).

I'm going to talk to the exhaust shop tomorrow and see what they can do... im cutting of the cats too... goodbye kitties... and than having my tuner delete them... no need for a restrictive exhaust filter

Long Tubes increase low end torque. Depending on what other mods you have, you get anywhere from 10-30 hp on average.

I'm going to run LT's into the stock cats into true duals and either fabricate a (really tight) X pipe or run a dual i/o Flowmaster. It's a tight fit under a Hoe.

Nightmare Tahoe... where in MS are you? If you are on the coast, I can tell you where to go to have a y-pipe made for the pacesetters that will flow a lot better than the pacesetter one. Here's mine:
