Well i got my subframe connectors mounted and took out my stock muff/tailpipes for the dynomax dumps. questions are 1) where can i get a pair of 2 1/2" flow tubes on the cheap and 2) what else should i replace besides the clutch and flywheel while i've got the tranny out? Thanks for the Help.

Replace the pilot bearing and rear main seal while the trans is out. As for the flow tubes try summit racing. I think there like $30.

I agree you should replace the pilot bearing. I would also add the throw out bearing to that list. Get the flywheel resurfaced and I assume you're replacing the pressure plate and clutch disc. As for the RMS, if it isn't leaking then don't touch it.

If your running a T5 if might be a good idea to replace the aluminum Throw Out Bearing Retainer for a steel one.
