[QUOTE="Deanwam8, post: 1271010, member: 27911"] So for anyone who has not read my below post - this is my updated situation: Bought a FL truck and had it shipped to NY - unknowingly without cats It has: Borla Long Tube Headers - Borla S-Type Exhaust NO CATS AirRaid CAI 37" Tires It is under a 5-Star Tune - HOWEVER, I do NOT have the original device and therefore no way to revert to stock (which I have to do in order to get my monitors back on - eventually pass inspection..then retune) I am trying to find the best balance between some measure of quality and lower cost (I did NOT plan on any of this and money is an issue) I called Borla - the rep said there is no way to mount CATs to their headers at all - they aren't built that way. He said I will have to remove them and either replace with another brand combo of headers/cats (which he then insisted I would NOT pass NYS inspection) or preferably return to all stock Ford CATs and manifolds. I can of course keep the Borla exhaust. I called the performance Raptor shop in NJ (well known on this board) and they quoted me 8 hours of labor to remove the current headers, then if I were to replace with a stainless works header/cats combo...then purchase of a 5-Star tune...I could also pay the insane amount for OEM cats and get exhaust manifolds and it would be comparable cost-wise.....but they were talking almost 4K after tax. This is not possible for me. Does anyone have ANY suggestions for me at all? Should I just go back to stock? Are there any after market more affordable cats I can use with any setup (headers or stock exhaust manifolds) to reduce cost? Anyone want to buy Borla Headers? lol...Can anyone explain why I was such a ******* for not asking if this truck was NYS legal before buying? lol...thanks in advance... :( [/QUOTE]
