new exhaust! :) Getting ready to buy a set of headers and new y-pipe. Ive already decided to go with the Kooks headers and y. What i was wondering tho is weither to go with the 1 7/8 or the 1 3/4? Also, while the car is down and the exhaust is out what other upgrades should be made? motor mounts, tune-up etc.
And i almost forgot, i plan on running the stock cat-back, should i go with a catted y or an ory? i dont want any rasp if possible (emissions is not a problem in my state)
Thanks in advanced

there is a link on here where he adds a powerstick into the I pipe and puts it in backwards and supposedly that eliminated the rasp from his LT/ORY set up...I'll see if I can find the link. You should see more power when you eliminate the cats too...
edit: haha search powerstick in the search bar and it's the first one.

hopefully this helps. I'll probably be doing this in the winter, I just put LT's and an ORY on mine and even without the tune, it feels a lot healthier then what it was

like said before if your gunna go bigger later go with 1 7/8 but other wise 1 3/4 should be fine.
as far as other mods i would do motor mounts and if u havent done recently i would do plugs and wires since its all there

cookba has a point, when you have the coils and headers off its so easy to just do the plugs and wires. it's an extra 10 mins, i didnt do my motor mounts, and i do sort of regret it since they rattle the floorboards a bit....
