Default Help with ARH Headers and Midpipe!

Ok, so I just bought a 2006 GT that has ARH long tube headers and an ARH OR-H pipe. If I fail emissions, what can I do to pass? I can't find anywhere that sells the ARH catted midpipe separately and the OEM doesn't fit with long tubes.

You could always just have some HF cats spliced in.

+1^. and OP, with an O/R X pipe you will fail emissions, so youre better off getting a long tube and catted shorty x combo to ensure fitment. Or as stated before, have them spliced in.

Have you checked Kooks? expensive but alot of positive reviews. If not kooks, I know BBK long tubes and a catted shorty X are extremely high quality and are a little cheaper than the Kooks setup

I'd be willing to trade you my stock Headers/midpipe plus a little cash if you would be interested! I would LOVE to have some AR headers!

He already has ARH's.. Those are some very nice headers and on par or better in my opinion than Kooks..

If you don't want to weld in some cats, you can always put a stock system back on to pass emisions.. You can usually find stock take offs for cheap..

I know this. I'm offering to trade stock manifold/midpipe+ cash for your LTs and midpipe. Let me know.

Sorry man, but there's not a chance in me getting rid of the headers.
