Welcome. Just how strict/naziish are they with visual inspections up thar in the Ocean State?? That's what will determine if you can get away with the longtubes everyone from Tejas, and elsewhere, are saying you must have.

as long as you have cats and pass the sniffer your good anything else goes, not sure if these longtubed headers and y pipe replace the cats though does anyone of you guys know?..sorry im a nebie i dont even know where the cats are lol i know on some cars they put them right at the end of the header
NICE!!! Welcome to "THE TECH"..... 98's rule Get familier w/ the stickies & you'll see that a lid is a lid is a lid.....they all make between 8-13 whp....might as well port/polish the throttle body too and get an additional 5-10 whp 
The SLP exhaust adds anywhere from 5-15 whp from what i've read. You are gonna love the torque these monsters make and be careful in the rain......these rides get sideways pretty easily

what about a lsx intake manifold? along with the lid and TB wouldnt that be better then just doing the lid and TB as the intake manifold would actualy be able to use the larger amount of air coming in better then a stock manifold
also ive herd good things about the HP tunners software so i might just go with that, im no newbie when it comes to tuning lol, i used to have a 98 S/C Z24 that was on emanage and i tuned it threw a wideband o2, but i see they have alot of bin files already up and alot of basic tune tutorials. how are you guys experences with this tuning software?
thanks a bunch you guys are awesome
