Default STS Turbo + CME??
Its tax season and Im going mod crazy. My question is if you have CME and wanted to run with a STS kit do you have to remove it?

I think you could get it to work. Just 90 the down pipe right away and it should come out right in the center. I do love the center ss tips.

In a recent issue of GM High Tech Performance a guy had an LT1 Camaro, I beleive it was a LSx conversion. The car had a STS kit on it and he used a CME, only one pipe/tip was actually functional though. The car was orange (SOM).

Hope this helps.

I'll send you a PM later today with the exact issue and article name.
