Default question about exhaust system~

So i read all the writeups...but still have a question~

If i get headers, intall them myself.....and want borla exhaust...

is there a kit i can buy to connect the headers to the X pipe(with cats)....and then from the X pipe to the Borlas?

I'm not sure where to find this info :o(

p.s. I'm gonna jump on the QTP header sale probably next week(street legal ones)

Thanks for any input!

crap...

The reason i ask is because i wanted to install the whole system myself like i saw the guy do in Dirty John's writeup(link below)

https://ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-external-engine/406318-my-long-review-qtp-1-3-4-lt-s-tsp-3-true-dual-system-lots-o-pics.html

it'd be quite convenient to be able to do the whole system myself over a 3 day weekend.

Why would you want to run an X pipe if you aren't going to run true duels. Just buy headers and a Y pipe from the same manufacturer which will bolt right up to your cat back. If you are going to be running cats, more than likely you don't need an X pipe anyway

I have a duel setup with thoses. Sounds good. Just expensive. First I had a y-pipe setup with one but then I wanted 2.
