I ordered mine about 2-3 years ago and have been happy with it, I would suggest buying some copper or aluminum collector gaskets to prevent leaks. I picked up some chrome tips for my system and ran it for a while sounded good not Flowmaster good but decent for the price. The mandrel bent pipes are good and better then some systems bent by the local shops who's system have kinks. Now i may either order another kit for my ls engine and sell the system i have set up for the long tube Hooker headers and cats.. :?

I've had the samne kit for four years now...Was happy with it, I just got rid of the turbo mufflers in favor of the dynomax uktra flo's.....

This summit kit is exactly the same kit I have on mine but I swapped out the mufflers later for a free set of Flowmasters I got. Its a pretty easy install I hade to dent the drivers side pipe for it to fit under the stock crossmember but other than that it was easy.

Good to hear its an easy install. Ill probably switch out mufflers in the future but for now i just need to get something under the car. Can't wait for it to get here.

I have the same kit. I like it. I find the mufflers are very restrictive though....I literally blew the exhaust through the c-clamps after installing my new cam and heads. I would suggest tacking the exhaust together and not relying on just the c-clamps like I did.....amateaur mistake lol

Good advice i took mine and welded it up didn't want those ugly clamps 8) Hey themontecarlokid what headers you running? also i didn't get my crossmember notched when i installed it and my buddy installed crunched the drivers side pipe a bit... so if need to notch the crossmember. :wink:

I'm running flowtechs. And I already installed a double hump crossmemeber from jegs 😀 I also plan on welding it up after i clamp it in place so i dont get any movement. I'll also be saving for some sick exhaust tips too.
