What to do in Vegas...
Hmm..I'm not really sure..There are tons of races and drift meets if you wanna come out and watch..Other then that, you can always hit up the buffets at the casinos and go shopping at the outlet..hehe..

Pacesetter LT (longtube) headers are the best bang for your buck. Magnaflow is also a good cat back, and has a reasonable price tag as well. As for a lid they are all the same. SLP's probably has the best fit. But a lid is the ONLY thing you should buy that is made by SLP. Everything else get a as far as SLP goes.

Welcome Sarah, nice to see some other vegas folk on here. I'm originally from there but in missouri for school and football. As for headers, go shorties. I'm going to register mine for two years out here in missouri before i go back. The sniffer is a bitch and if you don't have a good tune and a catted y-pipe they won't pass you. There's a few guys that will do it for you though if you have an extra $100-$200 to throw away, but i've lost contact since I moved out here. Also if you want check out the Las Vegas F-body Club out there (Good guys!!! they meet at In and Out on Sahara across from the Palace Station every Sunday I think at 6.) they're always down to help out a fellow f-body.

can't tune out the o2 sensors, in vegas the sniffer checks for 4 sensors two after the manifold and two after the cats. My buddy got lt's, tune, o2's deleted. Still no bueno. We eventually found a guy that would pass it for some $$$. You have to have cats and 4 o2's in vegas. Even without cats and you get passed on the sniffer you have to put a muffler on there to quiet the car down. The bike cops out there will make you pop the hood, and pull out there mirrors to check. Trust me, I know from experience. lol!!!

Amen to that brotha! The only way you can run straight pipe, no cats, or no o2 sensors is if you have a car registered as a classic meaning it has to be manufactured 25 years previously and you have to drive it under 2500 miles a year. So it would have to be an 83 or less to be eligible for an exemption. SUCKS BALLS!!! But you gotta figure, Vegas is right next door to California and their emissions SUCK TOO! Lol!

They would really REALLY have to be a dumbass cause the smog sniffer out here does all the work and tells them exactly what's up. Emissions is big time in Vegas now, in the mornings the smog is so bad you can't see the strip anymore.
