HFC will give you less Rasp, but TP's will give you more HP.

LTH's will give you less Rasp and more HP.

Anyone with LTH's will tell you they are so worth it. Granted they aren't as cheap as HFC's or TP's, but cost doesn't really matter in the end to those who enjoy the sound and boost in low end after tunes.

ART pipes are TP's with a resonance chamber. That's all. Very similar to Resonated Test Pipes.

which app/phone did you use or did you have a legit meter? i think my NR/NR/intake set up may be close to that maybe higher.

Apparently they provide gains over traditional test pipes.

MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

Still haven't seen enough independent dyno's to draw a conclusion though.

I keep seeing people buying them, but no one posting dyno sheets.

i am just new with mods, just learning with techs.. my question is, is long tube headers has the cat converter with it? or you dont need to have HFC or TP be changed?

thanks!

With LTH's they will replace the stock exhaust manifolds and the stock cats. LTH's will not come with HFC's. You will have an Open exhaust system.
