GTRACER88 · June 4th, 2008, 03:42 AM

IMO i think headers are a great way to make you car louder. LT with O/R pipe with SLP loudmouth will be soo loud.

O/R pipes are always a bad call! illegal, fines, impounded, inspection, emissions, MIL eliminators, tuning, no performance advantage. All Bad things. Keep cats!!!!!!

white shift knobs are good for at least 25 RWHP. I have one and could feel a huge gain!

yeah but see here, all you do is inspect your car, get it insured and you never need to inspect it again. and emissions? what emissions. lol

01GTstang · June 4th, 2008, 10:06 AM

what the hell are emissions?

04GTAMPA · June 4th, 2008, 10:27 AM

Just hold off and do it all at once. You'll get better pricing by doing it like that and only pay labor once.

01GTstang · June 4th, 2008, 10:52 AM

DeMello · June 4th, 2008, 10:54 AM

do you really not know wnat emissions are

o/r pipes and LTs make you fail

01GTstang · June 4th, 2008, 01:02 PM

oh i know what emissiions are.... GAY

zinc02GT · June 4th, 2008, 01:18 PM

thsi is one of the few reaons alabama is cool...

no emissions laws. I can do whatever I want and still drive it on the street. I just cant have drag slicks on it.

Nice to see you post again 04GTampa

zerofx150 · June 4th, 2008, 01:30 PM

LT dont make your car loud all the time, i have MAC LT with an O/R h-pipe, it needs no tuning other than turning off the rear O2s, (i needed a tuner for the gears so i had him fix that because i was getting LTs soon) As for emissions i have a friend in Houston TX with a turbo f150 and it passed emissions, in Oklahoma we dont have any inspections or testing what so ever (you should see some of the shit on the road here). LTs are a pain in the ass to install but it ranks high in the mod list for my car with nitrous being number 1, its a toss up with the gears for number 2.

its still illegal w/ the cops who WILL give your tho9usand dollar fines and WILL impound your car. And ther is at most a 2 RWHP difference in performance. High flow aftermarket cats flow just as well nowadays. You'll still need MIL eliminators and a tune, which negates to potential savings from price difference. NOT WORTH IT IMO.
