Default HEADERS! HEADERS!

Time to purchase some headers. I wanna know what i should do. I got a 03 AUTO GT along with SLP LMI Cat-back. Should i stick with SLP's brand?...it's kinda expensive, but i saw a vid with the setup and it sounded *****, but i need to know the exact setup...or should i say screw the xpipe, go with bbk LT's with H pipe?

1. Must keep cats
2. Must be longtubes


thanks

why must you keep the cats? if youre going to get LTs...wouldnt you be failing emissions anyways?

i dont live in a state that has emissions tests...but that was my understanding.

If you have an AUTO tarnny i think your limited to brands of LT headers , i could be wrong that might only be the 84 fox body that you cant put LTs on with AUTO tranny.

SLP doesn't say anything about what tranny you have to have. BBK always does, so i'm assuming it's both. I have seen like 1 or 2 pairs of BBK Lt's for autos, but they're hard to find

In that vid you speak of its SLP longtubes, catted x and lm2 catback. I also think that Mac and SLP are the only ones who make longtubes for the Automatic. Kooks may as well but I'm not positive on that one.
