Default Questions about pacesetters and o2 sims

Well My pacesetter longtube headers are on their way.....judging by pics that I've seen, It looks like part of the pacesetter ory pipe sits directly under the trans pan...... Will I have to remove the y-pipe evertime I take my trans pan off? Also how does the o2 sims work, are they just plug and play? Also how do you guys think it will sound (pacesetter lt's, ory, Corsa exhuast)?

On the o2 sims it depends on which ones you get some are plug and play some you have to splice wires. I think it will sound good especially if you have the sport corsa. I would imagine they would make the pipe go around toward the back so you wouldnt have to do that.

I just put my pacesetters on last week with Flowmaster 50's and it sounds great. Great horsepower gain too.

no...but I was just wondering because when I go and have my shift kit, servos, etc installed I don't want them to screw with the y-pipe... I was thinking just clamping the y-pipe in so just incase I want to do something with the trans I don't have to cut the y-pipe off. or if the trans pan will still slide off with the y-pipe in?

you do have to remove it! and it sucks *** i put mine on and then took it to get my shift kit put in. they said it sucked. they had to beat it off. then have the ends flared back out to put it back on
