Does anyone have the following setup on their car? And if so, how do you like it?

SLP "Header Package, 1-3/4" Long Tube 2001-02 LS1 Camaro/Firebird w/Y-Pipe/High-Flow Cats/Installation Kit", Part #30048

&

Magnaflow Catback = "PONTIAC FIREBIRD Stainless Cat-Back System PERFORMANCE EXHAUST", Part #16723

I have a 2002 WS6 TransAm with the stock exhaust and I'm ready to upgrade. This looks like it would give me long tube headers, new cats, y-pipe, and cat-back. Pretty much an entire new exhaust system.

Rule #1 about headers: Stay away from SLP
Would recommend Pacesetters or Hooker for the price
If you wanna dish out some cash get Kooks, ARH or QTPs (will last you longer)
Find yourself a Y-pipe, with Cats if you need to meet emissions, and the Magnaflow is a really good system, would highly recommend it

Speaking of cats. Which are the best if you want to stick some in there if you wanna turn your ory into a catted one?

high flow cats.....but it might just be easier to buy a catted y......

[JoshuaGrooms83]

I would have bought the cated y, but i had already purchased the ORY before i knew i was going to Germany (another thread) Ive seen magnaflows universals and a few others on ebay. I've heard magnaflows are the best. (good catback, i couldnt see why not)

Great choice for the catback.

Terrible choice for the longtubes. Go Pacesetter at minimum....and AVOID SLP parts for the most part.

[usafshelley]

i am looking to put some headers on my car but want something decent but yet kinda cheap on the price side. Also my car is lowered and i dont want to be scrubbing everywhere so should i go with a Y, X , H pipe? I have heard about header bolts coming lose and having to re-tighten them every few thousand miles and having to replace the donut gaskets also. is this true or just a-bunch of crap?

You can check out my build on pages 6, about 1/3 of the way down the page of this thread http://www.ls1.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23706&page=6

They are custom stainless steel true duals over the axle that I made myself. they sound awesome!

^^^^dude your on page 14 not 6

[Camaro69Mac]

I'm sure this has been answered but i looked everywhere.....Probally a dumb question but when i get some lt headers how many 02 sensors are there? Just two? Before the cats? So if i get a y pipe without cats my engine light wont come on right? I just dont want to have to deal with emissions around here Our checks are pretty easy just a plug in and if my car doesnt throw a code then it passes. So anyways i'm curious on the 02's and y pipe. i want to be able to pass around here

[Mr. Luos]

There are 4 stock.
2 on each side. 1 before the cat and one after.

Pacesetter at a minimum, what would be a max? I also wanted to replace the cats and y-pipe to go along with the Magnaflow cat-back.

[Mr. Luos]

Kooks or American Racing Headers.

Damn so there's no way around using no cats and having the engine light come on for a code?? Or I can get a tune? Thanks for the help

I don't have cats.
Can turn off the rear O2 codes to keep the light off.

slplswon,Wesman so far ive listened to those 2 and they sound awesome. Nice deep tone and not too loud.
