Dynomax headers for LO3 and good?

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...rt=8556&page=2

I doubt it. Usually it would show the A.I.R. tubes coming off wouldnt it?

For that price, I'm sure you can forget a y-pipe.

At any rate, the description (shortie) doesn't match the picture (long tube). Since it clearly states you need an adapter for an O2 sensor and they're for "off-road use only", I think it's safe to say they don't have A.I.R.

It says that they have the "A.I.R. provisions."

And of course Summit isn't gonna match every single picture with every single product. They wouldn't be "discount" if they did that. They'd be more like Macy's if they did.

About the only down fall is that they're 1 1/2" primaries. That's not bad if your looking for ~300HP or less. Just keep that in mind.

And I think by saying "Modification to stock exhaust required to retain catalytic converter system", they mean that you have to modify your old Y-pipe to get it to fit and bolt on.

I don't know about the O2 sensor. You'd have to call them about that.

That is a pretty attractive price though. I may have to look into those.

Thanks for showing them,
AJ

Oops, read right over that.

But, it does give p/n's for "reducers" if you need O2. I agree about the 1-1/2" primaries, unless that's ID.

By the time you got them hooked up to your exhaust, you'll probably have spent as much or more than just getting TES or Hookers that include the y-pipe.

I'm sure Tas will know what the part # is for the y-pipe, or will at least know where to find it.

I'm sure they make it. It's what they use on their "Street Series" kits. So I don't see why it wouldn't work with these.

Try their web page and see if you can find it. www.dynomax.com
