i have a stock h pipe if your interested, it is in great shape. you'll need to get 2.5" headers to fit. no point in having 2.25" restrictive headers, to 2.5" midpipe, to 2.25" cat back.

um i passed with NO CATS, they only take the reading out of one tailpipe( 4 cyls), if your in good tune, turn the timing to stock and you should pass.
