No check engine light, or any other codes were thrown. It fits very very well, and has had absolutely zero issues so far.

Leno, Keep in mind that Marks car is un-tuned. After tuning a good chuck of the poppin will be history. Also there's no drone to rattle your brain loose.

There is absolutely no drone!!! And Nick is right, it will clean up the popping when tuned. I am so happy with this product, GM should buy a set for every Camaro!

By ANY CHANCE did you happen to weigh the ARH headers before you installed them? I'd be curious to know what the weight difference is between them and the stock manifolds.

ZZcamaro · 06-09-2009, 10:20 AM

I did not weigh them, but the stock manifold were definetly heavy...We had a good laugh when we got a chance to see the stock exhaust sytem completely removed...It is a poor excuse for a muscle car exhaust.

Z_Rocks · 06-09-2009, 11:24 AM

Why is the car running so rich? Did you mess with the tune?

SSCamaroZ28 · 06-09-2009, 07:42 PM

I understand the necessity of headers, but the LS3 actually comes with a great exhaust from the factory. A 2.5" mandrel bent dual exhaust with H-pipe will support alot of power. I think headers and mufflers would be the only thing I'd even bother changing.

If you get a chance, go ahead and look at the factory exhaust system...It is VERY restrictive. 4 resonators, 2 cats and two mufflers!!! and teh pipes are dented in various places for clearance...it is not the way I want my exhaust.

And there ha sbeen no tuning on this car yet. There is something planned for the near future!!

Jeanius · 06-10-2009, 12:19 AM

What exactly does the package come with? X-pipe and bolts included?

ZZcamaro · 06-10-2009, 09:43 AM

It comes with Long tubes, cats, x-pipe, and pipes back to the axles...it has the clamps bolts, gaskets, and harness extensions also.

If you are interested you can send me a PM...We can try to hook you up.

Im really considering doing this although I told myself I never would after my 2001 SS. I just don't know because it definately wouldn't be a 50 state legal exhaust and in todays economy, some jobs may not be safe. If I find myself moving from Texas at a later date, I don't know that I want the hassel of either going back to stock or going with a fully different aftermarket solution based on shorties, catted xpipe etc ...
