Hey guys!
Finally gettting around to installing my LT headers on my 13 A6 and was wondering if there was anything else y’all would recommend doing whole having those off besides wires and plugs? Thanks!

Don't cut the steering knuckle boot.

When I installed my Kooks long tubes, had plenty of clearance to the steering shaft but the rubber knuckle boot was touching the header. I ended up cutting mine off as the earlier year Camaros didn't even come with a boot so it should be fine.

Awesome, ya I looked into it, if it touches many people say its okay to cut

We just recommend to change out the plugs and wires while you are in there if you need to. As far as the install goes its pretty straight forward. Just make sure you soak those o2 sensors before you try to take them off. They can be a pain. Anyone that needs installs done in the Chicago area we'd be glad to help out.
