Default complete exhaust system

does anyone make a COMPLETE, smog legal, long tube exhaust system, which includes the headers (coated), cats, y-pipe, and cat-back that is a total bolt-on solution?

first off, i want to say that yes....i DID read the "Newbie Mod Guide: Exhaust" post, and it has some very helpful information, but has nothing regarding a complete system.

secondly, yes.....i DID use the search function to look for my answer, but could not find it.

i want to either find a complete system as described above, or at the very least, piece together a system that is as painless as possible to do myself.

thanks....

I agree w/ the FLPs, but no Long Tube set up is going to be completley smog legal. This is because you have to move the cats from there factory location. Depending on where you live this may or may not be an issue. I believe people in cali have problems w/ LTs.

I see your in CS, you should have no problems passing inspection as long as you have cats. I have FLP's, install was a breeze and fit was almost perfect.

well, i used the term "smog legal" loosely....what i meant is that it included cats instead of running an ORY.

so i'm assuming that the FLP's are the only set that includes the cats & y-pipe along with the LT's, right?

i think probably for the amount of money spent on that plus the cat-back, i could get a lot cheaper priced set of coated LT's and have a custom true dual system fabbed up with the cats & x-pipe included....unless anyone else knows of a cheaper-priced system that includes the same stuff that the FLP system includes? it could even be minus the off-road pipes, i don't really want/need those....
