    I’m thinking about upgrading my exhaust and headers. I was looking at the MBRP black series. How can I find out what headers will work with that exhaust? Recommendations?

    I wouldnt bother with a full exhaust unless your force fed or the stock system is rotten.

    You have adequate size exhaust piping with mandrel bends bone stock.

    DT long tubes or URD with o2 simulator will be your best option. That way you can just unbolt and bolt on. Way easier then cutting a welding short tubes to the factory cats.

    I had the LCE header on my 2.7 when I had it and it bolted right up to my stock exhaust do the DT's do the same thing for the V6? I've been debating doing this with mine. I'd rather not have to go to the exspense of the URD Ypipe if I don't have to.

    Felt zero difference from short to long personally.

    Sounds MUCH better if u get the rasp under control.

    U have stock ypipe?
