I'll be installing my headers soon, and figured I might as well through a cut-out on so I can be even more obnoxious and loud when I want. I was thinking of putting it right where my cat was, so I don't have to crawl very far under the car to get to it. My buddy with a '00 SS has his right before the exhaust goes over the rear-end. Is there any pros or cons to having it back there? I dont really want to cut into my SLP cat-back, so where should I put it? Also, any heads up/advice you can give to me for when I'm installing my headers? Anything special I have to do about getting rid of the emissions? What about the charcoal canister?

 

That is a good place to put it.

 

...where the cat was...

 

yeah definitely put it where the cat was, sounds like the easiest and best area to get to.

i would leave the charcoal (vapor canister) intact.

the only header decision is to have a.i.r tubes or not, and of coarse you need them to have the o2 sensor provision.

i went with slp non air headers, so i deleted the air pump, air hoses, and that black box. all is well after running for over a month.

 

Mine are right before the mufflers on my duals setup. Very easy to reach when I want to make some noise.

 

I have mine right on the end of the y-pipe b4 the cat.

 

Here's mine
