I picked up a pair too. Do you know if the o2 wires are long enough? And also, mine were branded "XS Power" instead of LPP. Looks to be top notch quality though.

i would assume they are judging by where the stock ones sit..they should be pretty close to the same spot

I just talked with blackbear, and he said a retune is not needed with headers..even though im getting rid of the EGR, it shouldnt throw any codes or effect performance/mpg..hmm i guess i will give it a shot

Unless he turns off your mil for your egr u will throw codes mine did as soon as I cranked it... As far as a retune for the headers I would def. Think you need too but I'm not a tuner.. But your letting out alot more air so I would think you need a retune...
