went to the exhaust shop today. they quoted me $500 for header install and all new piping. thought that was a damn good deal. but, he was concerned about the cats being too small. and said i need to get new cats. what do yall think?

Why not just cut the cats out? Then you would have unrestricted headers

Cutting the cats isn't going to make it that much louder. Besides what's wrong with waking up the neighborhood? :D

Thats not a bad price, are you doing longtubes and buying the Y that will match or are they making the mid pipes? Greg is running spun cats in his truck, im catless at the moment.

I could unstand if you were free reving the truck at midnight but just cranking the truck and easing out of the driveway is BS.

I have no room to talk, mine sounds like a dog out of breath.

I'll know how it feels to be loud soon guys. And do cutouts make gas worse?
I don't want to ruin this topic, I'm just asking.
