Default LG Long tubes

Just purchased a set of LG's for my 2000 M6 vert from the guys at LG Motorsports. For thoes of who who are considering LT's, these guys are great to work with. They are professional, honest and oh so easy to work with. I do not have the LT's yet, but I can bet they are top quality as the guys at LG are straight shooters. Thanks for the great services and keep up the good work in a very tough economy.

Best,

A very happy customer!

I certainly like mine. And the sound with them and the Corsa Touring exhaust is nice.

I've had my LG long tubes for six plus years. Ive kept them with all my combos, stock motor with a cam and blower. Now a Forged 418 cubed LS2 with a BIG blower pushing well over 850!!! I would like to switch to a set of American racing 1 7/8 headers but it is not worth the money for 15-25 horse power.

I wonder what you would gain? I think I recall someone on this board that did the switch and only picked up 7 (he was right at 750rwhp). LG has always treated me right, I sure wish they were closer!

I heard the LG streets were only down 3-4rwhp on LG Pros and the LG Pros matched the ARH 1 7/8ths on an stock 346ci.

Yes, on a STOCK 346. The larger primaries should be beneficial when you have either big cubes, or a power adder.

They will be a very nice upgrade to your car. LG makes some excellent headers.

Thanks for all of the kind words guys!

As always, if you ever have a question about one of our products or how to do an install just give us a ring!

As for the 1 7/8" C5 headers...those are in the pipeline. Even on the 427 cars it is really up to the combo and how you want it to drive and how you want the power to come on between the two. Remember bigger is not always better.

Again, thank you for all of the comments we couldn't do it without you!

Anthony and Jonathan are great guys and help make LG what they are by the service they give you. Not only did i get a heck of an open box deal but i needed them the next day, so they packed it and shipped it them self so i could get it installed that weekend. GREAT QUALITY STUFF.
