Any news on LT headers?

I think Jake (Loungn14) is the only one with LTs for the C32 right now. And IIRC, he has not given dyno results or prices yet.
I would imagine that a more free flowing exhaust setup like that involving the installation of aftermarket LTs would result in less back pressure and a subsequent reduce in boost, which is nice. More power at less boost, less stress on the motor

MBWorld Fanatic!
Can't say anything about long tubes, but I CAN say that with a LET 185 crank pulley and cooling mods, LET/Eurocharged shorty headers are still a great gain for probably about half the cost of long tubes. Now I don't know of any dyno comparisons between the two, but unless the long tubes are significantly more powerful or if you just HAVE to have the absolute best.....the shortys are pretty awsome as they are.
This is from first hand personal experience. I'll try to get some dyno number within the next month.
Good luck!
