Buying Longtubes, What Else???

[JOHNS01GT]

I'm buying the slp longtubes w/matching shorty x, now do I need anything else? Like O2 sensors, extenders, MIL eliminaters??? I have a tune not a chip, but I will be getting dynoed after the install.

Anyone with long tubes know?

You will need O2 extensions for the front O2 sensors. If you have a tuner you dont need to get the mil eliminators because you can disable your rear sensors with the tuner. Another thing I would seriously look at is the best possible header gaskets you can find. I know I used the $hit BBK ones that came with my headers and I REALLY regret it. Other then that, have fun with the install, I know I did

You will need the 02 extenders, new gaskets from ford and most likely the MIL's. And also you should get some new header bolts as the studs will not all fit back in becuase of the placement of the runners on the heads

when i did my install the back two cylinders on both sides did not give enough clearance for the header studs to go back in so i had to use some bolts i bought from home depot

one more thing to keep in mind is with the install of long tubes, you will lose the ability to change your clutch (unless you buy hooker headers). I am not sure how many miles are on your car, but if you were like me (with 40K) it was about time for a clutch change so i just did that at the same time.

just a thought

Tell me how much power you gain on the dyno i am thinking of the same mods. Are you going with cats or not?
