LT headers question Would someone be so kind to tell me the pros/cons to LTs that have/don't have emissions? Here in IN I can get away without emissions however I don't know the difference. I am wanting to go with probably Pacesetter LT to a true dual. My car is pretty much a dd that I baby. Thanks!

I did. Unless you live in lake county then you can't get away with it.

when u delete the AIR, that is just to heat up the 02 sensors quicker, and the EGR is exhaust gas recirculation, whe you take that off you dont get exhaust gases recirculating back into your intake.

There is no con to deleting the emissions crap and the pros is to clean up the engine bay and keep exhaust gas from entering the intake. That's why I got race headers (non-emissions). You will need block off plates for the back of your intake manifold and some vacuum caps for the ports on the side of the intake.

The AIR pump, vacuum solenoid, EGR valve, EGR tube, EGR solenoid, and while you are at it...EVAP solenoid and EVP purge solenoid. Use block off plates on the back of the intake manifold and cap off all vacuum ports that are not being used anymore. Search for threads on cleaning up the engine bay or deleting emissions and you should find lots of info.
