Default THose with Kooks headers andan Xpipe setup, please post pics.

Those with Kooks headers and an Xpipe setup, please post pics. Thanks

Trying to get some ideas on which kit I can go with that would require min imum headache. I don't ming cutting and grinding since I have the tools and know who to do it but I don't want to have to depend on a shop to weld it. Gonna take it over to a good tig welded to have hangers welded on but thats about it.

Also, please post a pic of their Y pipe if anyone has any. I have it on my car but don't feel like taking it off to snap a shot. There was a good pictur around ere somewhere but I searched and couldn't find it. Thanks again.

Thanks PSJ, Did the X pipe setup connect right up to your headers? Actually, what headers are you running? Kooks?

Kook headers yes.

I ordered the x pipe and pipes and then had Speed Inc. spend 2-3 hours cutting and welding.

PSJ: What torque arm are you using in the 2nd pic? Cant tell for sure, but is that a driveshaft loop? If so, which one is that? Lastly, whats the black brace behind the trans. pan? Thanks.
