I'm in the market for headers and I have a couple questions regarding the long tube. I currently have a Borla X pipe that eliminated the cats. Will the ARH long tube catted headers bolt up to the Borla X pipe? And the car is currently tuned and I know it will need to be retuned, how much HP can I expect to gain from the LT headers and the custom tune? And last question who on the forum has the best prices/customer service on the ARH headers? Thanks!!

No go, you need a new X-pipe to run with the long tubes. I highly suggest going with catted X, will make almost the same power as cat-less without getting that gassy smell all the time.

Also, if you can spend the extra $$$ and get them coated, I would do it. I found a local company here in Minneapolis that coated mine for $225, they used Cerma-Kote. There are LG Super Pro Stepped long tubes. If you are going to stay N/A, these stepped tubes make great power both high and low. They start out at 1 3/4 at the cylinder head and then step up to 1 7/8ths

Thanks for the info! I hate the thoughts of having to get a new X pipe too. Would the ARH mid length headers fit? I assume I wouldn't have the same hp pickup but I'm not concerned about +\- 10 hp.

The mids will work with the borla X.

long tubes will not work with the borla X

I opted for the ARH mids to complement the borla x pipe i already have. They are being coated then headed my way!

Are you going to do a tune? I already have a custom tune and would be getting the car retuned once they are installed? Can you PM me and tell me where you got them and how much? The cheapest I've found was $1700 with free shipping.
