All depends on your wallet, hp wants and mechanical know how.
I could say FRPP ceramic coated shorties, they worked good on my 97 and weren't horribly bad to install. LT's might suit your purpose more though. Could use a bit more background info about your plans with the car.

Im Looking for something that will help the car "breathe" better and most importantly give a loud aggressive sound.
Yes long tube headers are the way to go. And yes the correct way to install them is to lower the K-member, I have heard they can be done without taking that k member out but it saves half the time and makes life a whole lot easier if you do. I always drop the K-member when i install a set.
No votes for the mid-lengths?
I had mine installed but the dude who installed the had a pretty long day doing it.
I have BBK LT headers with a BBK catted h-pipe and an American Thunder (Flowmaster) cat back = pretty awesome sound

Perhaps not enough people have used them to comment on them. I've seen them on several cars and the fit looks to be excellent. If I could do it over again I would try that route.
i would go with kooks or shm i have kooks know i like them sound good or even the hookers they both allow you to drop the tranny with out pulling the header plus you get what you pay for

Have you had it smogged since you did this? just wondering if they look at that type of stuff cause I want to get the bbk lt's
smog is coming up in about a month, I'm kinda tripping about it myself. Hopefully it'll squeek by............
though I doubt it.

Gotta love Florida, no smog laws anymore

You got 58 hp and 112 lb/ft trq with just mid-length headers? My HUGE BS flag is-a-wavin
That has to be a misprint or sumptin....
