Just upgrade to a tubular K-member when you do longtubes. It will make the install alot easier and you will also shed about 25lbs by ditching the stock k-member.

Oh ya ya that's a good idea. Those tubular k members aren't to expensive either. Would my longtubes from my 97gt fit this 01 cobra or no?

Kooks are a pretty penny tho. I might have to just do a cat-back or either weld those in for now and then later down the road long tubes.

They are a pretty penny, but the fit and quality is A+. BBk's & Mac's are cheaper but there not stainless which means they will eventually rust from the inside-out.

I looked at the comment on the video and the guy that owns that car said the part number to the mufflers were 40941. I searched borlas website and found this 4 ya.

He said there just the mufflers welded into his old flowmaster catback pipes.
