Get some longtubes (I have speed engineering) get a catted y pipe if you need to pass emissions.

If you are not going to use cats you will need Justin to tune out your 2 rear O2 sensors.

are there any longtube headers that are a direct fit no modification needed? i see theres plenty name brands also is there any thats the "best" or they all do the same job.
i most likely will keep cats on so was thinking to go with some hi flo cats. from the best of my knowledge.

If you are 4wd all longtubes will need modification. None for 2wd.

If you keep cats the y pipe will need to have the cats welded in. unless you find a kit with them already.

you will need to trim around your front driveshaft. Just use a big hammer.

I don't know who or if anyone makes kits with cats in there.

Stainless steel works has a set of long tube headers with cattes I have them in my build. After a couple of hundred miles the driver side is rubbing on the steering column...slight nudging with a mallet takes care of that. I have a stock exhaust with aftermarket tips. This set up has passed the wife and 3 year old and 18 month test!

But wait for the next batch as they foobar'd the collectors on this batch.

Get the big boy 1 7/8"!
Best part s not they come with collector spikes!
And No change in price! So awesome! I might swap mine out for the new model!

thanks for the link, i see those dont have cats, id like to run cats. do you have any sound clip of yours? do you know any highflow cats thatll work with those headers?
