Hey guys, have a question about my manifolds. So I've had the car about 8 months now, bought the car with minimal bolt ons, one being BBK longtubes. This past weekend a buddy and I installed H&R SuperSports on the car (rear isos in). However, due to the fitment of the longtubes I've been having a lot of scraping issues and can't even touch curbs (my driveway for instance). I had the car dyno tuned last month and made better numbers than I thought (473/504). My question to you guys is whether I should look into some mid lengths, shorty headers or go back to stock manifolds and maybe an o/r mid pipe? I know I'm gonna end up losing some hp and I love having longtubes but I want to get some advice on what route I should take. Thanks in advance!

I have jba shorty's and I like them I like longtubes too but having shorty's has its benefits not as much flow though, especially living in CO the roads can be a gamble there was a post on here about how much longtubes really made just switching to them hope this helps

It's not the fact that I'm that low, its the fitment on my long tubes. Even if I was raised up a bit I would still scrape on my driveway.
