QTP Race vs Emissions LT's.
 
Since I have an 01 Camaro, i understand there is no EGR or AIR system. So can I get the QTP race style LT instead of emission style LT and still use a catted y-pipe with 02 simms? Sorry if this is a dumb question but it would save about 80$. thanks in advance.

'01's and '02's DO have A.I.R. but they dont have egr. so emissions headers for '01 and up are in order.

But stop and ask yourself, do you really need that air system <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Oh the temptation. I know I dont need that system but in order to pass the So. Cali sniffer test i need Cats...and the AIR system helps warm them up from what i've heard. Makes me wanna move out of this state.

Well long tube headers won't pass a visual anyway. And as I understand Cali has a pretty strict inspection process.

The emissions law here sux. It wont pass the visual however i've heard that some of these inspectors just look for anything that resembles a cat. I'll let you guys know how I do when I go next year with my LT's.

I live in cali as well, ventura county. What complete exhaust set-up do you have and how hard was it to put on the headers and y-pipe witht he cats, was there a kit, or custom fab? How much was each part also. I have a 98 LS1 and just starting, but where, i have fowmastewr muffler and SLP lid.
