So Im about to get a pair of shorty unequal lengths for my car, should i go with MAC or Flowtech?(my price range) Let me know.

I would go with BBK's... but if I really had to choose between just the two I would go with MAC.

I know it's not one of your 2 choices, but BBK is much better. MAC's quality is hit or miss, + BBK headers have one peice flange all the way across. You should be able to find them for under $170 fairly easily. Find the part # on BBK's site and google it.

Alright ill try it. If i can find them under 170 I'll def get them.

Aw man only chrome, I def wont find ceramic coated ones for that cheap. Im not sure I wanna go with chrome. But I may, not sure yet. So Im down to BBK Chrome or MAC.

There may be exceptions, but if you're getting new ceramic headers for that cheap, you're getting what you pay for. If you're getting shorty's and you want to do it right, get FRPP. They fit any GT-40 head [or stock] and they're stainless steel. You can get the ceramic ones (Jet-Hot coated) from summit for $310.

Most others (cheaper) are made from mild steel. You can get the BBK ceramic for around $220-240, but they're even mild steel.
