Default Stock Exhaust Mods

Hey, all. I really like the sound and level of my stock exhaust so I was curious if I could just get headers and and change out the u-bend and keep it as is. And if I can is there anything else besides those two I could/should do? Thanks!

if u add headers, u will most likely get rid of ur cat depending on what set of headers u go with. so keep that in mind. u bend delete is a good choice

there are tons of options when it comes down to exhaust. but if u wanna keep it stock, the only other mod I can really think of is removing the res

Hmm, well my state and county both require emissions so is my only hope to get a cat-back exhaust as well or is there headers that don't require the cat to be removed? And also, what would you recommend in place of the horrible u-bend?

Most headers come with a new downpipe and you can ask for a cat to be included.

Any suggestions on what headers? I see SLP has options for high flow catalysts. Do the Speed Daddy's have a cat add?

I have ZZP Headers and I love them. Yes they are a little exspensive but they are great quality. And FYI I have emissions but I can run without a CAT because they dont even know it isnt there. I got the second O2 code taken out the PCM so when they plug in their computer reader everything looks fine.

No, this will be the last performance wise. I just installed the CAI intake and Autolite 605's Sunday morning, I just want to rid myself of the nasty manifold and u bend and keep my cat for a decent price and call her good.

Thanks for your help, man. So you're referring to these?

ZZPerformance - ZZP Downpipes #ZZ-GPDP

ZZPerformance - 304 Stainless Power Log #ZZ-304PLOG
(Do I need two of these? It keeps referring to front and back)

And what options should I go with under each and why?
