Yup, the y pipe is 3" outlet, you might have to cut some off your exsisting I pipe. No biggie. It'll slip right over it.

You can get the emissions headers comes with the egr and air bungs already welded in.

will the headers be a problem with the eibach springs?? and there some pacesetters on ebay for $285.97 uncoated plus$150.00 for coating,$125.00 FOR Y-PIPE but the headers are only for racing >>> NO A.I.R OR EGR
WHAT DO U THINK??
