[QUOTE="essasin, post: 558697, member: 9120"] Don't forget about smog since you live in the bay area like I do. LT's are not smog legal and having just an x pipe with two cats is now illegal in California also! I know of at least 4 guys which had a smog tech check for 4 cats. If you are not making big power since LTs won't provide a huge increase in power in a stock setup, it comes down to sound. Is it worth it to have to pay someone to pass smog every two years just for a meaner sounding car? In my case, I have one car is setup with a non emissions cam, head, blower, manifold...etc and it's worth the trouble of LTs. But I do have another car that is similar to what you have currently and for me it's not worth the sound/performance to have to pay someone every 2 years for a little more torque and hp. At the end you are paying off a car that's has the power of a stock car but sounds nice. [/QUOTE]
