you will need mil elimantors only if you have an O/R mid pipe, otherwise you won't need them!

You ONLY need them for mid pipes(x or h) without cats. And this is bc without the mil's, it sets off the check engine light. Now, of course this is no prob if your engine is fine. But if your engine ever gets a problem, you wouldnt know bc if the light is always on, you would see no difference. so basically, if you get no cats, BUY THE MIL's. you will not regret it., but if it has cats, you have no reason to buy mil's. Theyre 60 friggin dollars so if you dont have tobuy them, then dont.

Shut off the rear 02's. Problem solved. I would run some sort of mufflers...you will zero backpressure and your car will have less torque than it does now.

mils are a little more cost effective.
