Any comments on those?
The Borla Long Tubes are fantastic systems, constructed from the same high quality 304 Stainless Steel that Borla uses for their exhausts. A complete header and exhaust combination will provide HP and Torque benefits well above the stock, and also give your Camaro a really mean and aggressive exhaust note. Of course, because this is Borla, the tone will be both aggressive and clean and provide you a powerful crescendo all the way up the RPM range. Of course, there are some downsides to Long Tube header packages. An exhaust is basically plug and play, but a full Long Tube header system will require a tune to get the true performance and efficiency benefits it offers. The install on a header package isn't as easily managed in a garage either, and is recommended to be done by a mechanic (unless you yourself are well experienced). Because of these reasons, and the increased price, LT headers tend to be less popular than Cat-Back exhaust options, even though their performance and tonal benefits are typically three-fold. If you are looking to purchase a complete Borla LT Header set, of course, I would look at combining the package with the Borla Exhaust of your choice for a full front to back exhaust upgrade. It is easier to install both at the same time than it is to do them separately, and will save $$ on the install cost.
Hope this helps you out!

Thanks,
Matt
