The headers are installed with some modication.
1) No EGR port .
2) 02 bung needed to be replaced with screw in type.

The car is loud now. I'd assume many wouldn't be pleased with it, but I'm pretty happy. No engine warning lights yet. The rear section used to be a do-luck cat back but was hacked up to fit the rest of the exhaust.

Pictures are too big to post so heres a link


and I apologize for my camera work.

nice...big fan of the headers! really adds a lot to a car....the added power alone is well worth the job.

what part of MD are you in btw?

Looks good. What type of x pipe and cats do you have on it?

verylost

I'm southern MD, close to DC.

X pipe and cat are magnaflow.

not too bad...i'm right around harrisburg pa, so about an hour from the md border. i'd love to hear your setup sometime.

Nothing much to hear. PI TC, Tex's headers, custom exhaust with rear piece of do-luck cat back, Whiteline urethane bushings for front control arms, and snorkel removed from intake, some ok aftermarket rotors, and ebc brake pads.

It's really not much to brag about.

i'm jealous! i've had my set sitting here for ... too long
i only see two cats, how did you get them to remove (and keep off!) the 3rd one?
how long was the install?
how much did they charge? was it easy or hard for them to install them?

From what I've read, we only have 2 cats.
That 3rd one isn't a cat but a resonator of some sort.

Install wasn't easy. It wasn't just bolt on and go.

EGR port had to be adapted.
O2 bungs had to be remade.
And I forgot to mention that the stud holes needed to be made bigger.

It took awhile and it did cost me. I wouldn't suggest going to your local muffler shop but I think a good performance shop could handle something like this.

All in all, no complaints from me. I love the sound. I think there's a little more power but won't know until I make it to the track.

This is what the do luck exhaust used to look like when new.

Did you relocate the EGR valve?
I don't think you can pass emissions without an EGR valve. It may emit too much Nox gas to pass.
how did you address this issue?
I would love to do it but don't want a vehicle that will not meet emission standards....
