I have a deluxe as well, but I have the MPG gauge? Perhaps becuase mine has the "interior upgrade package"?

I have a premium with the IUP, and I don't have the 6 gauge cluster.

No change in milage for me. No locking header bolts either.
2 1/2yrs with the LT's & O/R H on mine.
Only time I saw a change in milage I noticed was when I installed the aftermarket tire/wheels.

I guess I will try without the locking header bolts. I am pretty excited and nervous to put these in. I hope I feel a difference

Can anyone tell me if there is a big difference in sound going from o/r x to lt's and o/r x? I dont mind the rasp I have now, as I dont think it is that bad at all but dont want my car to sound like a dump truck

The cats make most of the difference. If you already have the cats removed, it will be louder with the LT's vs. the factory mainifolds, but only about twice as loud...LOL
I personally prefer chambered mufflers with no cats & LT's , but you'll have to see how you like the current setup.
