Ive got a 96 lt4 and i want to make my car a little louder, so i have a couple of questions. Ive got a set of flowmasters and straight pipe in place of the resonator, but its still not loud enough. Long tubes are out of my budget, so i wanted to put straight pipe in place of the cats.
What sensor (how much and where can i get some) will i need to make sure i wont throw a code?
Will this affect low end power and torque?
How much louder will it make my car (the louder the better, dont care about resonance)?

Summit Racing $89 get the ones for the Impala. The 96 has the flat plug. I have some on my 96 after headers threw a code. These are made by Casper Electronics they have a site. Do a Google search. Hope this helps.... :seeya
I actually called Casper Electronics a while back, told them my situation, and said they only made the sensors for high flow cats, not for straight pipe. I dont know whether or not they said this for legal reasons though. So the impala sensors will not throw a code?
