boxes arrived today, sitting in my foyer.

PS--I ran the FI lth and non res carbon fiber muffler cbe on the last nismo. I am getting old now cause the smell drove me insane even after the tune helped a bit. My old chevelle never bothered me but that was a long time ago. HFC eliminate this and are less bad for the environment win/win.

Love having my MD Y pipe n HFC for that reason

I keep long tubes and a HFC. Only downside is no "true dual" exhaust or x pipe.

Is that going to be enough flow once the superchargers are installed?

Not 100% sure yet. The Tanabe portion actually goes down to 2.75". I do know these superchargers like a bit of back pressure to get into it's efficiency range, but I'm a bit worried about the top end restriction. If need be, I will either swap the whole thing for F.I. with the small cats or maybe just the mid back section. Idk how much these Y pipes can flow.

I don't think S/Cs need any back pressure. They aren't turbos...

It'll probably be best to go catless and live in the 50's

turbo's hate backpressure more. GTM was telling me the info about the SC's, but thats also speculation as well from prior experience. I just want moar

For those of you who are also going to recieve the Z1 headers on your tracking info does it say the package weights 10lbs?

wouldn't surprise me, I think they told me they cut 36 lbs compared to my stock headers.
