I wish kooks wouldn't make those quad tips staggered and make them even like the corsa tips. The quads look great on camaros but not when one pipe on the tip further in than the other.

I've had both and they're both staggered. Kooks more so than Corsa, but not enough to notice. If they're not staggered, they don't fit the shape of the fascia.

You can make anything work if you have enough time and money. These are designed to bolt up to Kooks. Anything else will require cutting and welding, which I can't imagine spending well over $1000 on an exhaust to do.

Honestly, Connecting this absolute work of art to anything less than Kooks headers would be a shame

We still have great deals on these if anyone is interested!

I got one when i did the exhaust, and for the life of me can't figure out why its needed. ground clearance already sucked but that loop is just too low. And i think i spent more time adjusting that than the exhaust.

I cant figure it out either. The MWC loop that I would go with has the best clearance out there but if I can save $100 I will. For a street car it just seems like overkill. I removed the support brace and Im not sure what its purpose was.

The DS loop is a safety item and needed if you go to the track because you have to remove the OEM tunnel brace to fit the duals. I never track my car and have a driveshaft good for 1000 hp so I was thinking about taking mine off for weight savings, but I don't know. Otherwise it's just to take an extra $100 out of your wallet.

Thats kind of what I figured. My car will never see the track so I didnt think it would be worth it. Kind of funny to get frugal after spending close to $1500 on an exhaust but hey $100 is a $100.

Running my kooks without a dsl, I don't track the car or drive it in anyway where the d-shaft would break.
