2.25" is the perfect size.

Whats the feedback from members that bought these headers, I saw 19 to 23 rwhp gains that sounds very good.

Are they equivalent to Rush import long tube headers? Do you need to delete the EGR valve to make them fit?

If there's another group buy I'm very interested to buy these, SC's headers that require minimal custom modification are pretty rare.

As for the cats, these headers are meant to remove the two pre-cats, it is not a design flaw. You still retain the main cat. You dont need to buy new cats unless you want to. The headers do bolt on to the stock y-pipe, you dont need to extend any piping of any sort.
These are very nice looking headers.

BUT...

The catalysts removed are the MAIN cats and on many cars the ONLY cats.

92-95? California SC400s had the 3rd sub cat after the two main cats.

The first diagram below shows the CA style SC400 system and shows the 3rd cat as a US spec only part (California). After the 3rd center cat its shows two resonators and then two final mufflers.

The second diagram shows the 49 state system with only two main cats and no 3rd cat but instead a center resonator and two center mufflers followed by two final mufflers.
