New LS1 Owners - Newbie Tech - What kind of headers......

This question probably proves im a newb but thats what im here for to learn so here it goes. Im thinking of getting Pacesetter Long Tube headers and I was wondering if can have Hi-flo catalytic converters welded on to this setup for emission standards? Or do i have to get shorty headers wich a I dont want?

Thanks

yeas you can. if u can its best to lose the cats

yes you can. If you decide to loose the cats be ready for some raspiness.

im going to get rid of mine real soon :burn:

Yessir. Just buy a catted mid-pipe. Having somebody install after-market cats is a pain in the ass, so I wouldn't suggest that.

Like the TSP cated Y pipe?

Yeah that works. It's easier to just buy it catted than to have somebody install cats in a o/r ypipe.

^ if your going to go the legal route yea a tsp catted Y is the best way to go with headers.

but all i know from personal exp. now is that longtubes pretty much hit every speed bump in the road. so avoid them at all costs.

i got the pacesetter long tubes and the ory for ;ikr 500 bucks an dthat was shipping includrd and i love the way i sounds wuth me lmII cat back. i havent had any trouble wiyj yej headers hitting any speed bumps but then again its not lowered,

ive got pacesetter LT's, and a Texas speed catted Y and i love them.

Its loud when on throttle, but just crusing its not too loud.
Ive never hit any speed bump or anything.

I have pacesetters with the tsp catted y pipe great setup.

:usa: Pacesetter LT's and TSP Catted Y. Its a perfect set up! I run it straight from the I pipe.

x3 for pacesetters and TSP catted. you only scrape if you lower your car. which i did.....hence scrape over everything. my shop did a shitty job installing the exhaust though, so thats part of the problem. with the original loudmouth, the sound is pure sex.

Got Kooks, love them

theres no huge differance in types, other then price. are you really willing to pay over DOUBLE the price for kooks, a maybe, MAYBE get 2-5hp more?? im not. for the price of just kooks headers, you can get pacesetters, catted Y, AND installed. i think that is a far better use of time and money then just kooks headers.

Yea, I went with the pacesetters and the off road y and its good looking and the results are noticeable. Its a rush and the responce is unrestricted. My buddy has dynatech's and the're bad a$$. But they are over a grand. If you are on a budget and don't care about 2-5 hp, go with the pacesetters. You won't be dissapointed.
