Default Lg super pro installation.

Just ordered some lg super pro headers for my 02 z06. Got the old exhaust out and the headers in the engine bay. I received no instructions and was going off of a post on ls1 tech for direction. Question is does the x pipe go before or after the cat delete pipes. I see different photos on different threads. I thought the pros may be different than the super pros or the c6 different from the c5. On lg website they have the converter delete pipes after the x pipe. I don't understand this concept having all 4 o2 sensors before the cats. Please help

You can do it either way. With cats the x-pipe is suppose to be after the cats. This is because the cats need to be closer up for more exhaust heat to operate. Without cats you can put them wherever you want. I personally have my x-pipe just after the headers.

I may be wrong based on these write ups here. http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=29
