Default Should all this bolt right up?

hey, i was wondering if all of this would bolt right up- here it is

- MAC Long tube Headers
- o/r x-pipe
- flowmaster 40 catback

will the shop have to cut some to make it fit the long headers?

i dont think they gotta cut anything, but i have heared you gotta drop the k-member to get them installed and it is a real pain in the ***, if you get a quote for a shop, get it in writing or they might find out it is a bigger pain than they anticipated and try to charge you more.

Yeah. in fact, you could do it yerself, while you have the car upside down to change the wheels like i suggested in the other thread you will have full access to swap it out.

Dont use an X pipe as your car is even firing and it will do nothing to help. Mac sells an H-pipe that bolts up to there long tube headers.

if i just get a dual catback, do i really need a mid-pipe? since its even firing can i just get each side going straight back?

You can and its called true duals. However if you do the long tubes you can just use MAC's shorty Hpipe. If you want to do just a GT catback then you can either have a custom set of pipes made to go back to the catback or you can have a custom setup made from the stock manifolds back. You can also just buy a bolt on H-pipe and then a GT catback and your done. I dont know which way would be cheaper so you might want ot call around some exhaust shops and see what they would charge for making a set of true duals for your v6. You dont have to have a crossover so dont ask them to make it and it will be cheaper too. We also have a sticky on this at the top of this section you should look threw.
