I'll agree too, not to shabby.

Ypipe wise, a majority of headers and ypipes dont have as good ground clearance as the expensive ones. You'll still be fine over speed bumps and all but that is about the only downfall. Not really that big of a deal in my opinion.

It's a good deal and good price for the set-up. The Y doesn't have the greatest merge in the world, but you can always change that whenever you see fit.

Just keep an eye in the classifieds for a flowmaster merge and have it welded up if you ever decide to. 300 for everything is a good deal IMHO

Sounds like a good deal, But I wouldn't purchase them if they aren't coated, just my opinion.

I also run this setup on my SS which is lowered 1.5 all around, ground clearance is fine, just take it slow on those speed bumps

Make sure you change all three of the mounts if not it will bang against the floor board. If they're the coated headers that's a good price.

As everyone said, if they are the coated ones thats a good deal.

Wont you fail emmisions in Cali if you do not run cats/EGR/AIR and all that? I thought they were very strict out there? Id make damn sure u'll pass emissions before you pull the trigger and buy these. Cali sucks from what i hear.
