as much as i hate buying tires...id say tires first, then HE, then headers. IMO

 

[SILV03MustangGT]

I would do headers. makes the blower more efficient. I would go long tubes though.

Headers

 

[Chameleon76]

Kooks!

 

[Nocturnal'14]

Kooks!

Coming from a guy who has both the headers and a set of great rear tires!! Says a lot, Thanks for the input!

 

[Nocturnal'14]

Headers

Kooks!

Why did you guys chose the headers over the other two? Just curious....cost?

Im gonna eventually NEED tires...I won't specifically ever need the other two. :shrug:

It would be great to have the HE though for cooling while on the road course track and would make my current mods more efficient.

However the Headers GAIN horse power, the other two do not but make better use of the power I have.

See the delima.

MOWR POWER! But if you need tires you need tires lol.

If you just got the blower I'm switching my recommedation to tires. lol

+1 Didn't notice that you have a blower lol

 

[grnenvy]

I did the headers and HE within 2 weeks of each other I say do both.

 

[Katy TX5.0]

Shorties are a waste. Go LT's if you do headers.

 

[Z25OH]

i say headers! these particular shorites have been proven to be, well pretty badass

Yeah...the HE threw me off the first time lol

 

[jymboslice]

[grnenvy]

Where the hell do u get your info from. I don't waste my time on bad parts. U better read up. lol

[Chameleon76]

Please do your research.

 

[Nomak]

Shorties are a waste. Go LT's if you do headers.

Really? Exactly why is this the case?

Its funny.... I have asked this in other threads and have yet to get a solid answer.

JDM Did testing on the Kooks shorties and they showed power gains right in line with Long tubes..... yet they are $600 not over 1K in cost.

Again.... please explain your statement.

If you need tires with the power you have now, more power certainly isnt going to help.
