    I can't remember what the stock pipes look like there. Or what size they are.
    Sorry.

    most people only do one - which is after the cats. The only time you would do 2 is if you put 1 before each of the cats.

    and if you have stock manifolds, you can only put it in front of the passenger side cat as the driver's side is bolted directly to the manifold. in 2000-up, both cats are bolted directly to the manifolds.

    All you non-Californians are soooo lucky you don't have our bullshit restrictive emissions requirements.

    Let me tell you, the only 3 times I've had to go have my car smog checked, before they even hooked up their gizmos to my car, they (squeezed) their heads underneath to see what's there. They see the cutout, but it is closed. No long-tubes, so it's cool. All of the, well, legit speed shops around here won't even install a set of long tubes on cars that are driven to and from the shop.

    So no, long tubes aren't an option for me.
