Default SLP Headers??

Ok so I bought a set of SLP LT's from a guy on this site, I just now noticed they they offer them in 3 different model numbers depending the year of your car. I was wondering if anyone knows what the difference is. I got them off of an 00 WS6 and I have a 01 SS?

The only difference is the emissions fittings.

98-00 should have air and egr
01-02 should have just air

and then the race version will have neither

So you're going to need a block off plate for the EGR tube his headers have, and you're going to need a prayer getting them on and for ground clearance.

Peace,
Craig.

these were pretty easy to install on my 2000 TA, and the clearance has given me no fits, even with some funky driveway angles,, and even a speedbump at my kidz school! i am stock height though, and have no plans of spending a bunch of money to lower my car an inch Every car is different though,,,

Thanks for the info. I am really scared of ground clearence now. I am also tackeling weather to get a good head cam package or opt for the sts kit. 100K mile car, dont the turbo sit a little low too? I guess lowering the car in the future is out

i believe the PNs are for 98-00 (AIR and EGR), 01-02 (AIR) and race 98-02 (no emissions). I've witnessed people have issues installing SLPs and they are pretty much the lowest hanging headers by around 1.5 inches. Every car is different though so you may have no issues.

so either way, with block off plates I should have no problem installing them just getting my emissions stuff to work if I want to run that right?

Right. You just need to buy, or make, block off plates for the EGR fitting on the headers. After they are blocked off, they'll be perfect for your '01 SS.

How do the SLP tuned length headers compare to the tride and true longtubes? I heard they make less power?
