Default wanting to do lt headers.....but

I want the truck to pass emissions......so do I need to get a tune to get the computer to think that everything is okay? I was thinking of doing pacesetters? What do you think!

yes you will need to get tuned so that the 2 rear O2 sensors are not reading codes. Any tuner will be able to do it. Many people like the pacesetters i dont have experiance with them i have OBX LT's

I say do it and then do this, if ya don't have the money for a tune yet. I still havn't had a light on due to the 02's and only now cause the new 6.0 and cam with a stock tune, but they worked perfectly for over 2+ years...

no the OBX LT's don't have cats. However they do have resinators that kinda look like a high flow cat, so you could pass visual instpection. There are actually 6 O2 bungs in the off road pipe so you can put your 4 O2 sensors in them and you would have to plug the other 2 holes. Any exhaust shop will be able to get you the plugs for the O2 bungs
