So where's the best place to get long tubes for the E55 in the UK? Anyone sell them? Mids and shorties seem to be easy to find. Had a quick search, but didn't find much. Thanks.

What is the advantage of long tube headers?
My E55 was in at the same time, Autoclass are indeed a class act..I used to work with Steve @ MBMK..they've done loads on mine including an engine rebuild..
They say yours is a bit quick...enjoy.
I'm sure Steve will fit the long tubes for you..bit of a mission but doable apparently..fortunarly they fitted my shorties while the motor was out..
I think EMP or top gear in St. Albans do them
More power. Some say 30whp more than mids apparently. Problem is they're usually way more expensive to buy, and a pain to install. I think I might be able to get some longtubes from the states for about the same, maybe cheaper, than mids from the UK. We'll see.
In my old Subaru days equal length exhaust manifolds were all the rage. They typically added the most power. I'm not au fait with the V8 but are long tube manifolds equal too? I've got a set of Kleemans coming from the US (in a suitcase lol) but I'd be interested in what you can find.

-321 stainless steel, tig welded construction
-Individual 1.95" Runners that form a uniform 4>1 3" tube merge collector thats been hand ported.
-Stainless steel flex sections to eliminate any stress or cracking issues.
*Our headers are the only units to market that feature a high quality braided flex section to absorb movement. It's a common issue with stock exhaust to crack apart the catalytic converter ends or break studs due to lack of flex in the system.
-Includes the longtubes, mid-flex-section, xpipe, & clamps/install hardware.
*You will need to turn off your secondary o2 sensors via. STAR diagnostic or have your ECU tuner code them out of your tune to eliminate a check engine light. Other customers have reported success with o2 spacers and foolers.
*With proper supporting mods, one can expect 40-50+hp gains when uncorking the exhaust system with such a mod.
