looks good, though you can do away with the plug wires, stockers are fine. and you can do away with the o2 sims if you have access to tuning.

i bought some taylor wires and there were pieces of **** and nothing but trouble so i bought a new set of oem's and have been straight ever since. plus the wires are so short that aftermarket wires offer minimal gain.

isnt combination motorsports in vegas? depending on how your car takes to the LT's you may need tuning so i'd look for tuning shops or find somebody local who has HPT for your year car and see if they can help you out.

I'm not sure on the emissions laws in cali but if you're not going to run cats, why run AIR/EGR? if you can find someone nearby w/HPT you can get that stuff tuned out

i just lived with the idiot light for a few months.

Wait, REUSE the stock gaskets? You mean go pick up a set of new stock gaskets to use correct, not use the ones currently on the car from the factory, right? Same with the header bolts right, go get new factory ones, dont reuse the ones already in correct?


globe, I just ordered the same setup. TSP said their TDs were made FOR the Pacesetter headers, so according to them, yes, they should slip right on there.
