Do these include new gaskets? Not a big deal if they don't...

No they don't but I'll pass over a good deal to everyone for a gasket kit.

Sorry i think i'm being dumb on this one

These are long tubes, connecting to the y-pipe, obviously they're a combo manifold and test pipe.

On a DE engine, like '03 and '04, they're making gains throughout the range? Obviously over catted, but is this still gaining over the ART pipes?

So assuming because it replaces the cats, you wont be able to pass inspection? Granted its "for off road purposes only"

yup, they want to see cats here in murfreesboro tn. one solution is to get the motordyne y pipe with built in HFC.

Yup, i'm running the XYZ pipe with the HFC unit, very nice. However, if inspection uses a sniffer, no HFC passes those.

not doubting it most short tubes arnt actually designed properly and instead are simply designed to fit compact areas. then compared to stock............well anything is better haha.

nah, pretty much the exact opposite. any HFC that isn't blown out will pass sniffer, it's the visual inspection that they'll fail if noticed.
