Did you get ones with or with out air tube hook ups. If you got with the hook up you may want to cut them off and weld a plate over the hole. After a year mine broke off and now I have to take them off and weld them up

Yea bro 24" extensions are going to be plenty imo. You'll probably end up needing some zip-ties to harness the extra wire beneath the car.

I have had them two years. If you take them off you will throw air system code. Most people delete the air system anyways. I had mine tuned afterwards to get ride of codes. Do you plan on deleting cats or egr those will throw codes as well
