Default Any ideas on what '96 SLP Shorties and 2 OTL catback are worth?

Ditching the SC setup and going to do LT's with H&C instead. Have the SLP Shorties with emissions and SLP 2OTL exhaust. Can't decide if I should sell or keep with the car.... Any ideas what I can sell them for? Checked EBay and Craigslist but can't find any.

You don't find 2OTL because they are rare and in high demand. You post for sale it will go real fast. IMO I'd keep the 2OTL because it has the best exhaust note.

I might be intersted in the headers...if you decide to sell.

If it were me I would sell the headers since there are much better choices out there. The catback I would keep bc I love the look and sound...but if you aren't in love with it the money from selling will go a ways towards buying something else. I've seen the headers around $200-$250 but if the cat back is in good shape they are worth $300-$400. The LS guys love the 2otl and the crowd is bigger so the catbacks are easy to sell. The headers though most people prefer longtubes. They're still worth something though. For reference I sold a 2otl catback in not great shape for $275 picked up. I sold a very nice muffler and tailpipe setup for $300 with no I pipe or OTA pipe. This is within the last year or so.

Not trying to hi jack here...but why are the choices so limited for long tubes with emissions fittings as apposed to shortys....? I know LT's are better for power...but the prices for say Kooks and SW with emissions pipes is just stupid!

Because shortys can still be emissions legal, and longtubes can't. Plus the fact that there is a good chance the fittings will break off down the road.

I don't know if they will fit a '93 or not. Maybe some of the experts can chime in on that one.

They will bolt to a 93, but the EGR will have to be converted, and the AIR fittings are different, just convert to the newer style.

Yep. I had this setup on my WS6. Great sounding exhaust, especially after it was "Borlafied", then it was completely adjustable.

Put a crazy price on them and you'd probably get close to it. But that catback can flow very well. Had the same catback(3rd gen exhaust pipes are different) on my 89 TTA and it ran 11.x@121. Didn't seem to be a problem with that car.
