Long Tube Install ?'s
Long Tube Install ?'s
What all will I need to buy to hook up a set of ***Emissions Compatible*** long tubes to my existing Catback ( Will their Y-Pipe bolt straight to my Flowmaster? ) ... I plan on buying the Y pipe that comes with a Cat already and is set up to bolt right to the long tubes. Will I need any type of exhaust gaskets? Also what brand manifold gaskets are the best, And Header bolts ? What will I need to hook up the O2's and EGR/AIR ( Or will the EGR and AIR bolt right up since its the Jet Hot Long Tube emissions compatible ones ???
Also Anyone want to give me a rundown on the install and what all is involved? I pretty much know how EVERYTHING goes on and off of the car at this point ( Bought it totalled with no engine so ... ) What all has to come off to get long tubes in? Also, would I need to unbolt the motor mounts so that I can Jack the motor up higher to get them in place and stuff or is that not needed? If anyone knows of a guide that has a breif rundown ( Shoebox maybe ??? ) of the install, thatd be great. Id like to have everything ready so that when I get them ( Ordering them within the next 2 weeks ) Im ready to go and can start tearing into the car right away to get them hooked up

Here's a list of my suggestions:
-FELPRO gaskets (#1406)
-Stage8 Header bolts (they have allen key capability)
-Two O2 extenters (ThunderRacing.com)
Its also a good idea to do the plugs and wires when you do headers. As for EGR and AIR, yes...the Jet-hots are availible with these provisions.
