Longtubes will yield a bigger gain in the low and mid range than shorties. Look to see 20 rwhp.

i doubt you'll pass emissions (i.e the sniffer test) but for sure you wont pass visual....... but you do get a real nice gain out of them

does your state require just the OBD II test? If so you should be ok, here in NC they just started the emissions test crap . I am haveing to buy a catted h-pipe for mine and get my light fixed before I can get mine tested when its due in NOVEMBER. ..........oh yea as far as power goes, get the longtubes, anyother headers is a waste of money.
