Many 10 second cars have equal length headers on them.

If you think equal length headers are a pain in the @ss try and install long tubes.

The mistake most people make is putting 1 5/8 inch equal lengh headers on a stock engine when they should have went with 1 1/2 inch headers to maintane there low end torque.

Later,
I agree with you to a certain extent, but my motor was fairly stock, and i went 1 5/8 un equal and got a nice gain, i dont see gaining much topend staying with 1 1/2, it would be a waste of money to me, most of my racing is done above 5k anyway, lowend loss was very minimal that i cant feel launching at 4k.

equals are my plan when i get ported e7's
