        The reason I got mid lengths are because I bought them used for $90 shipped in good condition.

        Mine are like these but silver... I think they call it Armor coat. I do not believe Pacesetter makes long tubes for V6's.

        Are you keeping the "stock" one or getting an aftermarket?

              so why not just hack it off and go pipe only? We don't have inspections in MI so your fine there.

              BTW the 3.8 sounds bad with no cat, I would recommend going with a carsound cat on it

                  That makes me think...

                  What size is the inlet on the stock cat? I know most high flows are 2.5" or 3".

                      because if a cop looks under there because he thinks its "too loud", you get a fix it ticket, and more fines for breaking the clean air act.

                          its not going to be loud enough to warrant a cop getting under the car...also most are too lazy. It is a v6, not a v8, loud is not an issue. Without the cat there is a ton more rasp, that is what I am saying sounds bad

                              I had a cop look under my car and it has no cats, he resurfaced and said "looks legal to me" and let me on my way.
