i only hear good things bout bbk full length headers. my set up now is bbk o/f x pipe and amer.thunder flows, so if it get headers i need a shorty x pipe. what i want to know is does anyone here have full length headers bbk and how r they, how loud and do u feel the horse power gain and any improved quar. miles times with them on. also with these headers, would it be good jsut to get straight pipe all teh way back and have no mufflers so it flows out the quickest. any replies please give your 2 cents thanks!

whats ur motor combo
no, run mufflers, without would be just to loud and i dont think it sounds good on a stock motor
maybe just shorties would do u good since u already have an o/r pipe

running straight pipes on a stock stang sounds good only with the stock h-pipe..
other wise it sounds too ulgy loud.

but running straight pipes on a pretty much stock 5.0 you'll lose hp due to the backpressure.
