I'm really surprised no one has posted any pictures of any kind.

I just installed them on my car the other day they are the easiest headers ive installed. I've done a number of header installs from pacesetters to kooks and these were the best. I only had one spark plug wire come close to a primary but all i did was turn the wire at the coil and hve had no problems. Very nice work black2002ws6. Happy cosomer and I will be passing the info to my buddies shop.

Heres my pics, but they are only of ground clearance.

Remember my car is lowered 1.25" on Strano springs, and the 'Before' pics are of an SLP Ypipe... I think I actually gained ground clearance over the stock setup....










and the all important before/after sound:

That's pretty good ground clearance being lowered 1 1/4". And if I say so myself the after sound is bad ***

Great quality headers. Install was awesome as well. Just make sure you get some MSD wires so that you dont hit two of the primaries. Thats my only complaint(which really isnt a complaint)haha. Sounds awesome but I need a new muffler now because that combined with my SLP LM its has way to much rasp.

Excuse me because now I that I just got done with the install I have to go hump my car and put the neighbors back to sleep.

Anyone using a catted Y with these. If so, what brand? Will these with the LPP Y connect to SLP LM2 setup? Thanks

No it will not hook up to it. I have the LM1 system which is the same thing except for the resinator. All I had to do was have the first piece of the catback opened up to fit over the they Ypipe since they were the same size

Thumbs up

Got everything installed yesterday I love the sound of this system. Everything lined up perfect on the headers, the only thing that i had to do was take my Magnaflow cat back to the exhaust shop for them to make the pipe wider so the ypipe could slip into it. Other then that it was super easy took 6 hours from start to finish. great product!

I'm interested to hear some feedback from camaro owners on this new system. It seemed to me that the majority of people who had issues with the old design were those with camaros. the last few positive posts were only by ta owners. also, does the little y pipe piece they added stop the banging against the floorboard?

What is the best way to connect headers to y-pipe to cat back?? I have a Borla cat back so I'm going to have to get it opened up. And I see Hawkfanatic is using some kind of band clamp. Is this the best way to go??
