Looks good! From what I can tell, it's a set of long tubes, a catted Y-pipe, and I can't really tell if that's just paper at the center or something else. Nice sword too!

Thanks for great the replies

OWENMUSTANG: definetly

CANNIBAL: No. I dont know of anyone offering the y-pipe in stainless steel. (could be wrong though).

TaTommyWS6: No. As far as I know the Spec 3 used to make clutches where you could choose carbon or ceramic (and I believe kevlar). Carbon was more streetable, ceramic bit harder. But the new clutches are a hybrid should be the best of both worlds. At least thats what I was told

BIGBOS: Yes they do offer off road y-pipes. I chose mine with CATS because I didnt really want to go too loud. I also bought the dynomax billet (or bullet?) muffler to try to quiet down the ride more but unfortunately it will be arriving after the install goes. After the installation ill decide how loud my setup is and if its still loud ill put the muffler in (this is a straight thru muffler by the way that goes between the y-pipe and the catback).

These were the prices I got:

$700 for the stainles steel headers
$500 Catted y-pipe (EXPENSIVE!!)
$45 Dynomax Bullet muffler
$25 Extensions

The ORY-pipe was for $215.

If your interested in a set PM me and ill let you know where I got those prices from. I dont think Im supposed to mention where I got the prices from.

foff667: Yeah that would be awesome, but I dont think thats gonna happen buddy! I paid $1897 for all of that! Clutch included. But I wouldnt mind getting another set for free

Install will start at 9AM tomorrow. Too bad ill have to wait so long without going WOT. The spec sheet says "Clutch stages 2,3 and 4 must be broken in for a minimum of 400 miles, primarily city and/or stop and go driving, BEFORE full-throttle engagement, launching or speed shifting. Failure to break in the clutch product will hinder clutch performance and life, and void all warranties."
