Shorties are basically glorified exhaust manifolds, I have em and all they did for me was make my wallet lighter. They look kinda cool, but that's about it.

Shorties suck, I had no gain at all with shorties, go ahead and get Long Tubes. I have not got them yet, but they are coming

Save your money dont get them. Ill clean my stock manifolds up and paint them nice and pretty for you, you would get the same performance gain.

I have shorties, but I bought them before I came to this sight... if I would do it again I would go with longtubes.... but as far as performace... by the SOTP test, I felt a good gain from midrange on up..... did not feel nothing on the lowend...
