Even more if you use stock I-pipe and just buy headers/ory and cme tips.

They certainly don't look like LT1 headers to me....Furthermore, where's the provision for the "cat" in the "cat-back" exhaust?


FWIW, that looks like an "engine to back bumper" system for an LS1 car to me....

+1 to that. definately not lt1 primaries on the headers. looks like a nice system, but it could be done for less i'm sure

Its stainless and its fully polished. You won't recreate this for any cheaper unless its not stainless and/or not polished. Not to mention CME tips usually go for $2-300 bucks alone. Its very nice to look at and that's a pricey option. All the naysayer's exhaust likely looks like ****.

Those aren't LT1 headers look at the center two exhaust ports, their evenly spaced out.

It looks like an LS1 setup but, it's probably just a generic photo.

I agree. Hopefully it is just a generic pic, or someone is going to be pissed.

Cool. Lay out the cash and get back to use with dyno #s and a vid. Then we'll tell you if it was worth it.

That merge on the y-pipe sucks. I never understood why most people overlook the most critical part of a y-pipe.

Tips are butt *** nasty and it would be loud as **** w/out a muffler. Regardless of state that is begging to be pulled over.

You can get the fleabay polished stainless headers and y pipe for $325 so you would be paying $1125 for cat back exhaust. IMO a super ugly and way to loud $1125 cat back exhaust...

I bet it's raspy as hell. If it was a true dual with an x or h pipe I'd dig it.
