My TOG's didn;t move the cats at all. They have you cut the pipe about an inch in front of the cats, and weld the collectors up at the cut. My Y-pipe hasn't been touched behind the cats.

If it weren't raining out .. I would offer to grab a pic of the CARB sticker, but it's cold and wet.

So they're shorties then. That makes sense, since it's only shorties that can get CARB stickers.

Shorties are true bolt ons. They don't require welding to be installed. They bolt up where the manifolds bolot up.

Hmm, very interesting. I stand corrected. What is that connector (welded shut it looks like) coming off the one header in this picture? http://bettie.homeip.net/atvpics/tru...s/100_0581.JPG

No dyno runs ... It's not a dyno queen .. sry. I could tell a big difference in them after the headers went on the new truck. I did to much at one time on the other one to know if they made a difference or not.
