Anyone w/pics of installed SLP headers with Air tubes?(kinda long)
To make a long story short ,I went to a local muffler shop this week to have them weld in some sub frame connectors for me.They wouldn't quite fit right so they were going to have to alter my y-pipe so they would fit.I figued this would be a good opportunity to kill 2 birds with 1 stone so I had them install my new headers and ypipe while they were at it. Well when I picked my car up the mechanic said he had to show me something.He had some left over parts from the install kit(some hoses ,a red tube and what looks like some sort of valve)i guess this stuff is supposed to fit on the top of the air tubes?Could someone please post a pic if you have one so I can see where this stuff goes?Also is it possible I ordered the wrong install kit?Thanks guys!

Those are my previous SLP 1 5/8" headers. I dont have pics of the 1 3/4" installed.

Thanks Kevin!Those pics help a great deal.What I'm missing appears to be a 90 degree bend pipe at the top of the drivers side air tube that sticks strait up.Looks like you welded one on and then attached that valve the points toward the firewall and has the rubber hose connected to it.I guess I'll call slp and order that 90degree bend thingie.Thanks again for the help Kevin,I appreciate it,it really bummed me out spending all that money and not have the job finished correctly.
