    DT shorties yes. DT long tubes yes. Shorties replace manifolds only, long tubes replace manifolds and cats.

    Thanks....I hear you have to modify the long tubes to put the cats in.

    You'd have to modify the catback more likely depending... Solo makes catted connectors for the Kooks long tubes, might be able to modify those to fit.

    You don't have to modify any catback systems to work with the DT's. The DT's attach to the same point the stock cats do but they eliminate the cats. The DT shorty's will bolt directly up to either the Solo Cats or the stock cats. In my humble opinion the shorty's aren't worth it unless you replace the very restrictive stock cats. Replacing the stock cats with high flow cats and keeping the stock manifolds will net you better gains that replacing the stock manifolds and keeping the stock cats. I hope this isn't too confusing.

    He wants to keep cats from what I can gather on his last post. That's why I said he would have to modify.

    Gotcha, I didn't read that. In that case the Solo cats will work perfectly with the DT Shorty's. I asked Jeff@Solo before ordering the Kooks if they had done a DT LT setup and he said no. I would not think it would be a difficult modification though. The flange would be simple and you would probably have to change the rear 02 location. Solo would more than likely do this for free if someone were to drive to their shop or they would do it at a great price point. It would be nice to have them do this so they can possibly design a DT midpipe. The DT's are certainly a popular choice.

    Yeah, just pointing it out.

    If it were me, I would get the long tubes and work around those. You won't see much of a gain just doing shorties and a catback.
