Oh man dude,

If you liked your LM2 before...you're going to be ecstatic about it after headers/catted y. Or, atleast I was. I loved it more than anything with stock manifolds... I can't even describe how much I love the sound now after headers. It's sad. The only threads I post on in this forum are about the LM2. haha.

It will sound WAY different after the headers. I got used to driving with my GMMG on stock manifolds, the installed the Kooks. It was BAD *** after the install. You're gonna love it. I got real crummy gas mileage for like a month after, cause I was holding 3rd gear at like 50 MPH just the hear the rumble, downshifting to acclerate and all sorts of fun stuff. Keep us updated.

Ok in about an hour and a half I got the Ypipe and driver side mani off. Not as bad as I thought... break time then to the passenger side. Getting the new stuff back in scares me. Its tight
