do i need that little extender piece for a base lude install? i am costing the pipes on the outside with some heat-resistent rust-protecting paint and don't want to paint it if i don't have to.

do i need to remove the heat shield by the cat? i remember others saying that they had to (rattles?).

thanks!

If you are using the stock exhaust manifold, then i believe that you need that little extender. I didn't have to use it since i put on the headers at the same time which were a bit longer than the stock. removing the heat shield on the cat is up to you, i had mine removed.

Yes u need the small extender. U need it also with any after market header too, not unless u go custom! I have Greddy Evo and DC CC 4-2-1. Great fit and there are no rattles! I love the sound and High-End HP gains!!
