Very satisfied with my BBK LT Headers

With help from my buddies, got my BBK Long Tube (ceramic coating) installed in 5-6 hrs.

Before the headers were installed, I have my cats and resonator delete and the exhaust sound was already pretty awesome. Now that I have the BBK headers and resonator delete, the exhaust tone is totally unreal... the car drives and sounds like a completely different beast.

I love it !







my iphone couldn't capture the deep tone coming out from the exhaust, it sounds 100% better in person. please wear your headphones.






chime in if you like your BBK LT headers

So does that just mean that the 02s on both sides are sending back a CEL? Hopefully theres no leaks.

That is correct. Because of the high flow cats on each side, not because of a leak

Ok thanks PoorMan, I assumed so, but it seemed that in many cases LT owners were reporting one code instead of two so it sparked up my curiousity.

Nice Lok =D The CEL did come on now? Damn... Vince is shipping the Cable to me as we speak. Infact he already e-mailed me my tune. I will talk to him on giving you a deal, since he doesn't need to ship two cables. =D

Guys, I sat in his car... for those of you who don't have LT headers... wow that extra torque kicks you in the balls. He was driving me uphill, and from gear 1-4 I was being kicked into the seat... Also sounds like a crazy monster, better than a stock SS imho!

Seriously, if I wasn't considering Twin turbos, I'd be on LT headers this summer too. It seems that the BBK headers have nothing to lose to headers like SW and ARH. I mean, I felt the kick in the balls feeling... theres not more you can ask for. Also like I said, the sound is incredible. And it's the cheapest out of the 3 LT headers offered... so I mean, I'd say go for it. Enough people can vouch for BBK, thats for sure.

Enough people have been vouching for the LTs period

Everyone that gets in my car blows their load per se when I drop the gears and floor it. I was driving my younger cousin around one time, and since she's family I was trying not to be too crazy with the car. So this one says "You know, this car isn't that fast"...I just looked at her for a second and dropped the hammer....LOL. The look on her face was priceless.....I asked "How about them apples?"
