Opinions/Advice on LTB Stage 1/2

Hey Guys,

I'm in the process in wanting to get both of these bars for my car. But i was wondering a couple of things and I wanted to see if anybody out there can give me some advice or opinions..

1. On the BlehmCo website it states that the Stage 2 installed on a 4th gen will not clear Headers.. Is that just for the 4th gens ?

2. Would it be a good investment to get BOTH stages of the LTB installed ? And would either one of them clear Y-Pipes or Headers?

3. If the Stage 1 or 2 LTB does not clear the headers or Y-Pipe for the 5th Gen. Would you cancel getting the LTBs just to installed Headers or Y-Pipe and just go with SFC's.

Hope i posted this in the right place and thanks in advance for your opinions/advice.

Roger

you don't install both. The stage 2 is a stage 1 with two more attachment points. It's one or the other. Either are highly suggested, though the stage 1 should be fine for most people.

Get them fast, IIRC Matt isn't making them anymore, so it's just what he has left that are available.!

Yeah thats what i needed to know . I have a 5th gen but it only says on the BlehmCo website that the 4th Gens have this problem ..

But if 5th gens do as well .. I dont know if its worth losing Headers for Handling
