Longtubes will get you the most for your money. They are a pain to install on a mod motor though. I run kooks on mine but they are about the most expensive being stainless

for fitment I would recommend MAC. They are the best bang for the buck. I have installed MANY sets on mod motors. -j

The big difference is that you can remove the manual tranny with the MAC headers installed and the BBK hug the trans too much. You can remove the tranny but you WILL get scratched headers.-j

Or do like I did and cut the bellhousing off and put a TKO 600 in it. That way the gear box can be removed from the bellhousing.

i had a P1SC procharger on my 02 gt and we found out through many different exhaust combo's that any long tube headers or even equal length shorties with h-pipe and straight thru mufflers makes a lot of hp.. the h-pipe made 20 more hp than x-pipe on dyno.. hard to believe huh? and i personally found that dynomax welded mufflers work best, their 2.5 inlet and outlet mufflers open up to 3inch inside muffler.. the more exhaust you can flow with a supercharger the better.. you cannot go to big with exhaust with supercharger.. if you can route 3inch pipe on your car you'd be amazed how much difference it would make..
