Went to Houston this weekend, but Friday thankfully my neighbor was home to accept these.

I'll be installing them this week.

I think he said he was getting the S&S, but iim not sure.
either way they a f***ing sweet. Thats my next purchase too.
Hey J, how did you decide between TOG and S&S?
**I was just comparing the hearders on the S&S website and those dont look like S&S, so the must be TOGs.......my question still stands.

I'm gonna go ahead and run off of the stock cat for now, yeah they are new and under full lifetime warranty, hardest part of install looks like cutting the pipe in front of the cat, but thats why i have a sawsall, the only other thing i need to figure out is the O2 setup now there are 2 o2 ports, i may just block one off.

They should have come with a high flow cat. I bought mine from TOG through ebay just over a month ago and I got everything you have pictured plus the high flow cat.

The threaded bung on the collector closest to the catalytic converter is for your upstream O2 sensor. The one on the crossover is for the EGR pipe.

Ahh, thanks, good call, i'd have figured it out when i disassembled everything, it ought to be a cool ride from my house to the exhaust shop running open collector pipe.

Nah, it'll just be obnoxiously loud with no low-end torque (don't ask how I know this).
Bring ear plugs.

Ever make a decision on the header wrap?
Was thinking about getting them powder coated but is obvious if I ever had to send them back for a warranty issue. I think the wrap is a better idea because I couldnt imagine how they would know they were covered.

yea we just put headers on my friends 92 eclipse....it was a bolt on but the bolts were so rusted we had to sawz-all the exhaust off and he got a custom catback thrown on, it was so loud off the pipe it was ridiculous, at 1500 rpm it was already so loud he couldnt drive it home, so we had it towed....

Those headers look great! Definitely post pics when you get them installed.
