anyone able to pass emissions with lt's and high flow cats. I live in nyc and heard that you cant pass even with cats. Also, what are you guys getting on 96 - 98's with lts?

Thanks,

I have the same headers and they go through gaskets like I go through underwear. Hopefully you have better luck.

ohh I thought he meant the collector flanges. I like the individuals WAY better. Its an easier install and they line up 100 times better.

I would say more than 10 rwhp on 96-98 they have even less flow from there stock exhaust manafolds. I would say more like 20rwhp with a good flowing x-pipe and straight through cat-back atleast.
