they include Check Engine Light Eliminator adaptors that go in where your O2 sensors are. It prevents it from throwing a CEL.

About the cams, not sure.....I'm not quite at that step just yet! wink

look around the site and see what you can find....[/b]
Does that also reply with the offroad Y-pipe?
msds headers to offroad y-pipe with no cats.. would be super raspy no?

I'll have to hear yours to believe it. wink 2 glasspacks & 2 mufflers only and no rasp under acceleration or no load revving! I bet the RAP sounds much worse outside the car??? My car always sounded great inside it, but outside was a completely different story.

Now wait a minute... I said I got rid of my rasp, not drone. :p I have drone at around 2250-2500 cruise RPM, which just means I should have down shifted anyway. The RAPPPP outside the car is a bit worse I'd imagine, but the X-pipe will change that tone and also quiet it a bit more at full song in the short future. Let's just put it this way... it was so raspy before that it may still have a bit and I wouldn't notice it at all. :rolleyes: Anyone at SZ02 could tell you that...

I know Exactly what you mean! laugh

HisSVT2 -
I personally think that would be extremely loud & boomy.
I ran a single muffler (SS Ultraflow F-body) with no resonator and it was extremely "boomy" with lots of drone. This was with precats & a catless Y-pipe. I ended up installing a 2.5" SS Ultraflow bullet resonator to kill the majority of the boom & drone.

You're wasting your money buying glasspacks, not Magnaflows. Once the glasspack blows out it's packing all you have left is a loud, ill sounding car. The Magnaflows will last longer and retain their resonating capabilities for a longer period of time.

24" body length. Just FYI, the cross drilled core glasspacks last a ton longer than the older vane core ones ever did. Happens they don't kill performance like the older style either. wink Plus I can still change them out 4.5 times each before spending more money than the Magnaflows cost. :p

with a set up like his it should sound great...i went and had the stock mufflers replaced with glasspacks and think it sounded funny. (different set up than his) next week i am going to go have the rear glasspack removed and have the exhaust split into duals.
