Header Help Hello guys. Im looking into changing my stock headers on my 2000 Trans am, to some pacesetter Lt's and gonna get an off road y-pipe put on, but I have ran into a couple problems. No garage will take off my cats for me so I do not know how to go about doing this. I really dont think im capable of doing this myself. And other question..When putting a ory on I will be getting a service engine soon light right?And how will i get this to turn off, a tune?

yes and yes. The install itself is not too technical is pretty much elbow grease. With a friend to help you out and at least one full day available for the install will make things happen.

yep, i installed my pacesetters and my true dual exhaust myself with a friend. it was a bitch to do, not gunna lie. we started around 10 am and didnt finish till 12 am. you def can do it with someone just time consuming. i would never pay someone to do headers, its so easy.

I'd seriously look into doing it yourself. Do you want to learn? Do you have the proper tools? A pair of tall jackstands? Read up on a few header install writeups, look at your car so you know where and what you need to do for every step. It's not difficult at all, just a little time consuming and be prepared for some torn up hands and forearms. You'll save yourself a lot of money too.
