    I have run the LCE long tube/equal length header on my 2.7 when it was naturally aspirated and supercharged, and it definitely helped with drivability and low end torque. Also, iirc, the collector on the LCE is larger than the Doug Thorley, so there is a slight difference there. I think the LCE long tube header is a good upgrade for the money. I haven’t run the Doug Thorley header but I bet it’s an upgrade over the stock one. The primaries on the stock are small and seem like a restriction to me

    I plunked down the coin for the LCE long tubes. Should be here in 2-3 weeks. I'm excited for this upgrade. This is my first long overdue HP upgrade since purchase. I'm ready to unleash the beast.
