Must have for a daily driver

If you're going all out with the BBK headers and new exhaust these are a must. Highly recommend Magna Flow race series. Sound is killer.

Unclearable CEL

Fits well, sounds evil. Sadly Bama informed me that they can not tune out the CEL from these hi flow cats. Wish I had known before purchase. Feel like I've wasted my money.

Can this mid pipe be used with the borla LT headers? I understand the borla comes with the off road x pipe but I'd like to keep the decibels down a little. 1 answer

When doing long tube headers you will need to match the same brand header as mid-pipe for proper fitment. We would not be able to confirm the fitment of the BBK Catted X-Pipe with the Borla long tube headers.
