What is the best way to go long or short and what is the best brand?

 

[JennaBear]

I would go with LTs over shorties. The shorties are basically the same size as your stockers. Brand will depend on the $$$ you want to drop. I have the AEM LTs and love them, but they have a hefty price tag. Another good brand is the Dynatechs....

If you do LT. You have to delete the cats. Do they sell a kit for that?

 

[JennaBear]

I have the cats but you do have to relocate them.

I am trying not to do alot of cutting. What kind of power gain do you get?

 

[JennaBear]

Hard to say since they went on at the same time as the cam install. Just looking at them, you can tell they are a lot more free flowing than the stockers.

 

[Ducati18]

Sweet. Do you have a S/c? If so, what spec cam did you do? I was thinking about getting one.

 

[JennaBear]

Yep, I have a Maggie, and my cam is a 206/212 115LSA.

 

[Ducati18]

Was you impress with the cam? What type of #'s did you get?

I put the cam and headers on before the blower and was very happy with the performance especially on a DD. The Tahoe straight moved! The blower put it over the top and she runs like a ***** ape now, with over 575HP at the engine. I have yet to take it to the track or dyno yet, so this is just EFILive estimates (so take with a grain of salt).

Justin's Silverado SS has a Maggie and a Z06 cam with headers and he blows the Tahoe out of the water. It is a neck snapper making over 650HP.
