TPIS Istall pics.....Encore presentation.

In the pics of the underside of the car did you install the x-pipe that came with the headers (?) or is that anj x-pipe from a different manufacturer? Thanks.

The "off road"x-pipe is courtesy of Breathless performance. I did not need the 'H"pipe included with the headers.More torque and better flow..IMO:D

So what happens when you go in for a emissions test? Will it still pass without the cats? Would love to do something like this but need this part of it explained to me.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: TPIS Istall pics.....Encore presentation. (Maineiac)
The x-pipes were cut into place up close to the headers for optimum torque they fit like a glove.The car is relatively quiet in cruising .(that'sthe Corsa Indy's at work-no resonance) and meqan and nasty at WOT. :cool:
