ok so i finally found a place thatll do it, but im wondering if i should just get the test pipe to replace the 2 cats & the flat spot & move over the sensor each time i switch pieces, or... just delete the 3rd cat entirely, leave the sensor in the origional place & just easy bolt on & off of the 2nd cat ... i dunno? wat do you guys think? i want performance wisem but also this is my daily driver & i dont wanna get pulled over for the car being to loud, also how much louder did the header make ur car el_blacky?

you read my mind...
i wanted to ask i u had a video but i had already asked for the pictures so i didnt wanna sound greedy lol
but maybe ill delete the 3rd cat & resonator for a lil more agressive sound, & have the 2nd 1 removable for track only... i like how your car sounds but i can deffinatly see myself getting pulled over in a quickness lol but yea hopefully ill get it done this weekend & ill post a b4 & after video but thanks alot for your help, hope i havent been a bother

this is when i used to have it all straight pipe and it sounds very aggressive! but like always i got pulled over and just put my resornator back on for less sound lol
and dont worry you are not a bother. this is the reason this place is for us users who have questions

ok so 1st off....
HUGE FAIL! for the people that 1st said theyd take off my cats & then when i showd up they wouldnt! & second i ended up removing a resonator & when i asked about replacing that flat piece of piping they told me that it wasnt that bad, they said it was about 2.5 to 3 inches wide... & i quote " picture a gallon of water in a tube & a gallon of water in a tray... either way its still a gallon" lol so basically they said it wouldnt affect me
because its still letting efficient air flow through its just an odd shape that im not used to, & if i did change it to regular piping i probrably wouldnt clear speed bumps or dips (i have a story for that 2day will probably post 2morro tho), anyways i believed em & didnt change it.... but what do you guys thing???

that is true about not clearing speed bumps since i always hit my driveway all the time but i think theyre wrong about the flat piece performance wise. id reccomend to go to another shop to get it done

well at least i got to look under my own car & seen for myself that a custom test pipe wouldn't work as easily as i had hoped, for now I'm gonna save up and continue on with my other mods & get back to the exhaust later
