not tryin to be a d**k, but shorties are a waste of money, i really hope you haven't already bought them. if you're getting headers get LT's or none at all, not worth it IMO and i think you'll find alot of people will agree.

LT's and no cats cutout= loud as ****. cats get rid of lots of rasp from what i have seen. LTs and no cats through stock Z muffler is pleasent and actually sounds decent. my set up and an E cutout

A lot of good advice in this thread.

LT's with ORY, or catted y, and stock catback + electric cutout. You'll have the best of ALL worlds.

Nice and quiet when you're cruising, mean and loud when you're.....

The 2000 and up manifold are pretty good. Most shorties only show a marginal hp gain.
