Default chicago shops

what good reputable shops around chicago that will do a header install and fabricate a y-pipe with cats without costing a arm and a leg.

i already have the headers, will be getting the cats and gaskets soon only would need plugs, plug wires and 24" O2 extensions as i was told, which if any of you are selling 8.5mm MSD wires and the O2 extensions ill take them

Speed Inc. custom fabbed (and installed) a y-pipe with dual Random Technology cats off LPP longtubes for me couple years ago. Turned out great and couldn't be happier. Just drop Larry an email.

I have a Y-pipe I had on for about 50 miles ONLY, I drove to Chris1313's house to put on my 9in and back! Its a Pace Y you can have the band clamps or the stock ujoints that the y comes with they are brand new in the box.
PM me if interested.

it's cheaper to do it this way then all the bends and custom fabrication

Do you really need the cats on there? You can just delete the rear o2's and get the correct ORY. Or your worried about noise?

Yeah, sorry, it has been a while Larry started with an LPP off-road y-pipe for my setup and fabbed the cats into that.

What cats are you buying for $100 for both? That's cheap. I would make sure they flow enough for your setup or look into better cats.

For me, with 3 little kids at home and the wife, the car is so much more enjoyable, both in the the reduction in noise, and especially smell, with cats on the car.
