Hooker long tube install
Finally got my ceramic coated Hooker long tube Headers installed. They went in without a problem, even though I had to reroute one oil cooler hose. Fitment was excellent, only had to raise car 16 inch's and I had plenty room for the passenger side. I did have to remove the factory front end stiffener at the k frame. Mini starter fits in easily.. now to install my derale deep trans pan.. and button it all up.

I wonder if Hooker redesigned the y-pipe at some point? Although I ditched my y-pipe for true duals a few years ago, it fit perfectly on my car when it was on there (91 A4).
