Any of you do-it-yourselfers installed longtubes yet? My car is laid up for the winter so I have plenty of time to do the job, and I like doing my mods myself when I can. Are there any special tools needed or any really tough parts to the install?
I want to go with an offroad h-pipe, not an x-pipe, and I am leaning toward the JBAs. Should I go with the 3 inch collectors and H-pipe or the 2.5 inch? They also offer stainless, silver ceramic, or titanium coated. Any thoughts on these or any other brands? I wish someone would dyno all of them side by side, that would be awesome.
My only experience with installing coated headers was at 19 years old on my 79 Camaro. The white ceramic coating got dirty and chipped by the time I got them in and they were a mess. I was thinking about just getting the stainless ones, my car only goes out in good weather so that should help too right?
