if you want alot of power, then you want some LT's. there are many brands out there: FLP, SLP, Hooker, TTS, Dynatech.... and others too. If you get LT's you will have to get rid of the slp ypipe because the headers wont fit the ypipe. You can get high flow cats if you want your car to be emissions legal, or you can get an ORP and completely remove the cats.

1NastyHawk, look at the sponsors for the forum, all the ad thumbnails to the right of this message. You can start shopping there, also look in the classifieds, scroll down past internal external yada yada...check out the sales and GP (group purchase) threads, some really good deals in there.

Now for the answer, yes, some LT's come with Y, like FLP's but you pay , A LOT. Hookers, nope. You'll see as you go shopping around, some sell them with ORP and some with cats. What kind of performance are you looking for should be the main factor, use of the car, sound desired, then of course $$$($) and emissions restricitions. Good luck and welcome to THE BOARD. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
