Headers on a '97
Anyone put headers on a '97? I see the TOGS listed for 98+ years. Is there a difference in the engine compartment that would effect fit?

TOGS do fit though you will need to modify the tranny torque bracket in the front. Otherwise your good to go with a Carsound 94009 cat 3" (in and out - may require a reducer) and no codes.

Depends on the cat. The SLP did throw a code on my car but a quick PCM flash fixed that. Also, depending on the style of headers you choose, you may need to get a prebent dipstick tube.

I removed the entire bracket. Me and a buddy were tired, it was late, and pissed off. Otherwise I used a spoof for the rear o2 and everything was good to go.
