Buy headers with or w/o emissions? I am trying to decide wether to get headers with or w/o emissions. I don't have to worry about the car passing inspection or emission testing.

If I had to do it all over again, I'd definetely go with the non emission equipped headers. It would make the engine bay look better, and you don't have to worry about those checking those spots incase of an exhaust leak. Less weight too.

doesnt say what state u are from... but in CA u cant have LTs on even if it has cats and passes emissions. u failed the visual with no CARB No. So u will have to swap on stock eq. for smog anyways. Go without. I know of 4 people personally that have their EGR or AIR provisons on headers crack and break off...

anyhow....its when you remove your Air Injection Reaction and your Exaust Gas Recirculation systems. pretty much this article will explain everything. i went over and found it on ls1camaro.net.

won't hurt your cats, before you ask. AIR system just cleans up your exhaust gases to try and clean up emissions during cold starts.

Thanks alot guys, i've found the links on how to remove the egr and secondary air. Hopefully with the ORY and Hooker catback i won't have much rasp, I can't stand that. I really dont' care about the exhaust smell w/o running cats.
