If you’re looking for every bit of power possible... maybe. I’m no expert, but I’ve read you give up a little torque with the 1-7/8 LTs If you aren’t upgrading heads/intake/etc for more flow. But I’ve also seen plenty of posts that proclaim you don’t loose anything.
Personally, I’d go for the 1-7/8. You’d never notice the minimal power loss and they’d give you the capacity for more upgrades down the road if you decided to do so.
