Installed Hooker Headers 1 7/8 Longtubes + 3.0" Exhaust - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Pro Stock John · 07-08-2015, 11:21 PM

Went over to my buddy's shop and he swapped out my entire exhaust.

New setup: Hooker 1 7/8 long tubes; 3.0" X pipe and mufflers. Came with new 02 extensions and new header bolts. We went ahead and did a new set of plugs since they had to come out.

Went on very easy, everything fit great. We started late but I took a few quick pics, can take some more later next time I have the car on the lift.

Idle video (first two right after install, some oil was burning off):

I was looking at this exhaust. what were you running before? how do you like this in comparison?

Why did you go from Kooks to Hooker LTs?

Pro Stock John · 07-09-2015, 10:01 AM

I was running Kooks 1 3/4 long tubes, Jegs x pipe, some stock pipe and then Hooker Maxflow mufflers. The exhaust was all 2.5" inches. Had a lot of exhaust leaks.
