LT pipes
I have a 92 RS LO3 with a 5 speed. Are there any long pipes that will fit on my car with no modifications?

If what you are indicating by long pipes, long tube headers, then yes they can be had through summit for 135 and are made by heddman.

Yup I have them in mine, I had to take a grinder to my A-arm perch a little just to clearance it but other than that they fit PERFECT! and as long at you take the starter, knock sensor, and oil filter out they are easier to take in and out from under the car that it was to put shorties in from the top side. and to give you an idea of were they sit, mine are about a half inch if that lower than the oil pan.

for your application absolutely. long tubes really only help you out if your building a 400+ hp setup and even then its only a marginal increase. I went long tubes since I wanted the cool factor and duals, also I NEVER wanted to have to upgrade my exhaust again no matter what I did to the engine.

well im not 100% sure because ive never done it but ive read places on how to modify those to fit soo im pretty sure... a t56 also has a different style clutch that might have the slave cylinder in a little different position...

I also heard conflicting stories/rumors that the hedmans dont fit with T5/T56s so I was prepared to have to do a little clearencing when I got mine (68469 Dport) but I was pleasently suprised like I said earlier, only had to clearence the A-arm. Im pretty sure a T56 slave setup is pushed out farther toward the headers than the T5 and I know there is a couple of guys on here that have T5s and the hedmans so it is possible and for the price (135) they are hard to pass up you can even get the coated ones for 350 last I checked.

IMO Heddman makes a very cheaply designed product. I'd go with the Hooker long tubes.
