Default SLP / Dynatech ect...Long Tube Header Systems?

Of the different long tube header systems out there, which have the tubes for the air pump and which do not? I know I can disable the air pump in the ECM and cap/plug the ends I'd just rather have it in place and working. I am looking at the Dynatech and the SLP systems for this reason. Plus anyone having favorable or unfavorable comments about any brand of long tube systems I like to hear them. If it is a negative comment about a forum sponsor please use a private message I don't want anyone flamed here. I am looking for comments on ease of installation, pipe alignment, durability, horse power gains, sound, quality of workmanship. Thanks in advance for your contribution!

I've got the Dynatech's and wouldn't trade for any others. Well made, installs easy, sounds great. Got about a 25 hp boost and 40 torque. The only difference between the street and off road long tubes is the air pump hook up. If you remove all that stuff you can get to the spark plugs way easier and has not effect on the operation of the car (the air pump is only used on cold start up). I had them ceramic coated and so you can work around them without waiting for them to cool off
