Default ARH Headers and Corsa X-Pipe?

I have a '15 Z51 and a while back I swapped out the oem x-pipe and exhaust for a combination of Corsa 3" double helix x-pipe and Borla ATAK axle back exhaust. So the current setup is oem manifold and forward cats, Corsa x-pipe with deleted secondary cats, and Borla ATAK axle back.

Now I want to add ARH long tube headers and my question is does anyone have any experience as to whether or not they will mate properly to the Corsa x-pipe? Also, will the ARH long tubes cause any codes or check engine light because of the primary cat delete?

Thanks for any help.

JV

long tubes will not work with corsa X pipe.

you will need the new X pipe that you can buy with the long tubes.

you will need to either modify your current corsa x pipe or fit a ARH unit and yes you will need to tune the vehicle for the addition of the new headers as it will throw a code and also lean the motor out slightly, when your ready to get a set of arh headers hit me up and i can do you a special deal on them sir and if you currently have a sct programmer or diablosport unit we will do a custom tune for you for free to match the addition of the new headers.

Thanks Steve

^^ Due from doing the LT headers will give you a check engine light. But I went with the LG set up and there front cats also. With same cat back as you.

But my car was running rich as stock to the point the plugs was really black and wet all 8 of them.

Now with cold air box, lt headers, ported T.B., ported intake, also a t.b. spacers, The plugs look really good now all 8 of them hand tune on the car from a t-1000.

But I don't track this car in no way so far but will get on it and have had it to over 160 mph. It ran really good at that and had more in it as far as a top speed. Robert
