Are you planning on getting a tune after the Lt installation? If you are deleting your cats at the least you will need 02 sims, and they are getting hard to find since the epa banned them. So you will need a tune to cut off the rear 02s or you will have to live with a ses and not pass emissions. A typical Lt install will net you around 25 hp. With a tune you will gain more hp.

Sorry to butt in... Check this place out: http://www.afterthoughtsauto.com/
There you can get O2 sims... Pretty cheap if you ask me, and they are honest too. I just ordered mine there, ordered the wrong ones, but they knew which ones I meant, and sent them right over. I paid $78 for 2, including shipping.
