^ Yep. A nice stainlesss "long" system like that would be a hell of a lot easier.

Just go with the Stainless Works long tubes. They run all the back to the factory NPP and replace everything else.



The Kooks and Corsa would have to be welded together. Any Xpipe that is designed to remove the rear cats will overlap with the headers connection pipes. So you'll need to cut the exhaust and weld it together. Cutting through 304 stainless is a pain too.



If you order the Stainless Works headers with full xpipe it all bolts right in place. You'll just need to make one cut in the back before the mufflers and then clamp it all together.

I saw that American racing has a set that goes all the way back as well what are the quality differences to justify that extra 1,000 that American is charging

It's actually cheaper.

ARH 2" Long System no cats on Juiced Motorsports website: $1954.95

Kooks 2" Headers w/ Off-road connection pipes on Jucied Motorsports webiste: $1384.57

Corsa Double Helix X-Pipe on Juiced Motorsports website: $749.95

The Kooks/Corsa combo you're talking about is $2,134.52, that's $179.57 MORE expensive than going ARH and the ARH is going to be an easier install with possibly cheaper labor costs.

I didn’t look at it that way thanks for the response I will probably be going that route instead of the kooks thank you !

I went with Kooks because I already had the Borla Stype catback system. The Kooks headers with high flow cats connected just fine with no welding. I did however end up adding a resonator to the system in the straight section behind the connection pipes. That did require some fab work because the resonator was 2.75in and the rest of the system is 3in

My system will end up being similar. I'll just buy Kooks or maybe CSP headers with off road pipes since I already have a Borla 60606 and 60608 connected to my Kooks axle back. Going around my ass to get to my elbow, but it'll work for me.

This would work because Borla catbacks do not delete the rear cats. So they don't overlap.



Remember guys, if the Xpipe deletes the rear cats (hard to find these days) it will overlap any set of headers. Welding will be required.

Don't forget the CAMARO6 coupon code. Stuff gets a lot more affordable that way.

Texas speed headers and x pipe are very inexpensive and great quality (do not get the 2 inch)
