I have the edelbrocks on my car now, i'm very pleased with them, worth everypenny, fit fine, went in easy... etc etc.

i think if i was to do it all again i would probably save up and just get a stainless set with HVMC like ARH or QTP ...

but i have no regrets as of right now...

The fitment generally isn't great, or so the legend goes. Some people post up and saying they got it to fit well, but it takes A LOT of adjusting. In all honesty, it's the best flowing y-pipe out there - it uses the Flowmaster merge, which is way better than all the other merges, even the ARH y-pipe, but the Flowmaster merge is pretty big. The thing about the QTP y-pipe is it isn't stainless, either. Honestly, for the $550 bucks the catted-y costs, you can buy 2 cats, a Flowmaster merge and have an exhaust shop create your own y-pipe that fits better than anything prefabricated - and you'll probably have money left over, too.

That's because I had products backordered for TWO MONTHS I couldn't put them on. My O2 extensions were backordered for sooooo long, then after they finally shipped (a month later) ,the CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WENT ON BACKORDER. Magnaflow actually RAN OUT of the cats Then, at the last minute, I decided to get a set of gears - wouldn't you know Richmond's went on backorder?!

It was a nightmare. I would have had the headers on in early July if it wasn't for the horrible time I had ordering things.
