Our kit was designed to take either OEM, replacement, or our mufflers just depending on if you use the adapter piece.

At that point all that should be needed would be the mufflers, but I haven't seen the Kooks set in person to say either way.
I have the KOOKS headers and cats but I have the 3" Magnaflow exhaust. That is 3" all the way out.

I thought that since your system was a 3" as well that the mufflers would have a 3" inlet.

Guess I'm confused on your answer. Not sure I can tell if you are saying that your mufflers have a 2.5" inlet or if you're thinking my mufflers have a 2.5" inlet. What is the inlet size on your muffler kit?

If I ever get a chance to get over to your shop some day....maybe we can take a tape measure and see if the look like they would fit.

I didn't know you had the 3" MagnaFlows, as most are the 2.5" OE replacements.

Our system is 3" ALL THE WAY. Our mufflers are 3" as well. Our mufflers are designed at the same angle and fit so with an adapter you could even use them on a stock midsection.

So yes, they should be a direct replacement for what you have.

I love the way it sounds when you get on it tho.

Go ahead and send me some pricing info too please for L99 options. Thanks!
I would agree with Cal on doing the tune. I typically ask the customer what they want to do with it, sometimes I will have it come on only during highway cruise and never around town.

I usually only buy brands that seem honest about there actual gains. I just cant see the swap gaining over 30 more horsepower. I would like to believe it, but realisticly probably around 12-18 as well as knocking off about 40 pounds of dead weight.

Those are honest gains. I have seen the same or more from customer's and other shop dyno's. Any other changes to the cars, either before or after are listed with each dyno so do be sure to look at that as well.

I have seen other companies posting much higher gains from much smaller items. Our headers, both Camaro and Corvette, have been around for a long time now. Probably one of the few to put them in a professional road racing series and won with them.

I have other dyno's in our site gallery and will post more as we do them or get them from customers.

As I have American Racing headers on my Camaro I went with them because of the power and the quality.
Lg didnt have there headers out at this time and for the price I got my ARH's for at the time it was a sealed deal.
In the past I have friends who have installed LG headers on there corvettes and I will say they are 100% awsome quality , GREAT POWER and a thumbs up all the way around.
I probably would have gone with the LG's if they were out when I was buying however im not unhappy with the ARH's

Both very good headers with GREAT customer support
if you buy LG's go with there complete system dont just buy the headers sounds awsome for sure.

I installed and tuned one of these packages a couple weeks ago and the fit and performance was very good for sure.
