The reason for that is they probably don't sell long tubes, the long tubes I know of are
made by smaller manufactures who probably couldn't supply parts in the volume Summit would need to market them.
Could be wrong but that's what I'd say, either that or he really doesn't know the difference.

well see. i got them from summit. my thorleys.

they told me. since i had already messed up and got long tubes. might as well only install them on the passengers side. that way when the air met in the tail of the y pipe, the flows would equal out and make back all of the lost torque.

Summit also reminded me. If you are looking for a cheap turbo w/ substantial results, click here.

Summit news informed me STS is shutting down because of the overwhelming sales made off of the turbonator.
