LT header questions
Ok guys, so i'm looking to do my full exhaust. I have a few questions. I'm looking to go BBK LT's with BBK catted X and SLP LM1's.
1. Has anyone heard this combo in person?
2. how much is typical install on the LT's?
3. am i correct for matching up the catted X with a cat back system like slp lm1's?
4. I've lowered my car 1" will there be clearance issues with the LT's on speed bumps etc?
thanks again.

are you correct? that depends. if its for sound thats all personal taste, if its to be more
environmentally friendly then sure. most people dont like OR pipes on the slp's cuz they quiet them down a little.
no to #1, and #4 i dont know. it depends on how high the speedbump is i suppose. my car is dropped and my midpipe scrapes really tall speedbumps but the average bump wont touch.

search button. typical install costs more than the headers. your looking at 600+ from most places

Thats a pretty average setup. +1 on it being a PITA. LM1's suck and sound like rice poop driving through a tunnel with **** warts. And yes they will clear everything except trailor parks and california smog inspections.

2. You will pay alot more for install then you did for the parts. The install is easy and you can do it yourself with basic hand tools just research it.
3. catted will sound better with the LM1's then O/R
4. You wont scrape as long as you dont go over curbs and speed bumps at 20mph.

RE: LT header questions
ok $500 is what i kinda planned. i'm looking for a deep rumble type of sound but fairly loud, any advice on a better catback to acheive that? i really don't want a raspy ricer sound. and i don't want it obnioxiously loud and droning.
