    Ok i said i would post these, couldn't get the back header. but these are the best i got so far.... they fit just fine no problems... you will have to remove your heat shields on radiator cooling fans... other then that no problems at all! pretty good for the money i think!

    Just not to fond of how low the down pipe is.. see pic below with *** marks

    I have'nt had any issues with the downpipe (yet?) hanging down, but I don't like the O2 sensor placement. I had to beat the tunnel in for the front one and the rear hangs down lower than I like. I only have 300 miles on them since I installed and I will say I love the power increase over my stock setup and I think they sound good with my SLP aftercat exhaust. Fit and finish on these pipes is good, well worth the money spent.

    ssac are nice but if you cant stand that dp bump the knock of pacesetters work just as well for the same and sometimes less money. either way wasting money on the 700 dollar plus setups is just that....a waste

    Ive got SSAC's ... my downpipe WAS like that.. and there was a skid plate welded on the bottom, but when i put them into my grand prix, i had cut them just before the flex pipe, and the shop put on 3" and a new flex pipe and it is tucked up nicely.

    Its called get an engine that has some real aftermarket support and heres something you should learn about engines... displacement makes big power easier.

    Find an L36 short block, top swap it, cam it, throw on a Gen V and an intercooler and bam... thousands later, 350 FWHP

    Also, create new threads for this.

    Don't crap up other peoples threads.
