i have that... the stupid shop i took it to welded the ******* headers to the existing pipes going to the x pipe.

but in a proper fix, you should use 3 inch to 2.5 inch reducers, and clamp them on, and you will have to cut the drives side pipe and i think modify the passenger side pipe a little....

needless to say i am going to have to go to a shop and have them fix the shitty work on htere... but it is doable

I am also planning on this with QTP's. I want to run CATS as well though. Whats a good, reliable CAT that won't sacrifice my ground clearance?

Holy crap!

Is the catalyst material in this actually a metal of some sort? Does it do anything for emissions, or just smooth out the sound?

Which would be better to go with the Bassani TD's, Stainless Works LT's or MAC mid-length's?

Thanks for the input as of now i am planning on buying the system and then buy long tubes later down the road. Is there a problem with the exhaust hiting the PHB. Is there any banging noises that comes from the system. Thanks

Yeah, it can be done. mrr23's wife's Formula is a '99 and has the Bassani TD's. I'm sure he can tell you what needs to be done.

if you are retaining the stock manifolds and cats, then you'll need to have it welded right behind the passenger o2. other than that, it's a direct fit. here's a pic of where you'll need to weld it to.
