why slp headers into slp exhaust....and why a mail order tune and why run cats just wondering ?....you would probly get alot more horsepower if you went with longtubes and no cats to an x-pipe....your cats can be tuned out of your computer and it will still pass emmissions...i have a little over 800 in my exhaust setup and thats everything new....hooker longtubes ceramic coated and a texas speed off road x pipe with dynomax bullets dumped before the axle...it sounds badass and should get me some horsepower gains as well...and u will also get more out of a true dyno tune because every car is different...

The headers are longtubes,I bought the complete setup including cats and h-pipe from f-parts it was all matching. the reason for cats are i don't want my car to sound like a log truck coming down the road My car is a 6 speed with 3.42 gearing.As far as the tune goes i figured with no more than ive done i could just send it in to someone and get almost as good of a result as dynoing it.when the head and cam swap comes thats when i will take a trip to get it tuned.
