    anyone tried PYPES x-pipe?

    Updating...I got the Bassani and it was by far the easiest exhaust swap I've ever done. The 2 down tubes are separate with hangers, very easy to slip the hangers in and bolt up to the headers. The cats and X are another section. Just all slid together, clamped and bolted up. GOOD TO GO...

    add temp sensor to electric fan?

    I have a black magic electric fan which has done a fine job of keeping cool for years. The only problem I have with it is the temp control...a sensor which laysagainst the radiator.

    anyone tried PYPES x-pipe?

    are you referring to the smog pipe from mid pipe back to smog tubes and pump? mine is long gone. i have heard you will shorten the life of the cats without and also that it makes no difference. either way you will probably have to go the boneyard to find one
