Default wierd smell without cats and which Y to buy

im looking to get kooks LTs and didnt know if it was better to buy the kooks y or get my own made with the flowmaster merge also i was thinking about not getting cats but i know i hate when im driving down the road behind an old truck and that fume smell makes you light headed because he has no cats and i dont want to be that guy with the smelly car. so i guess my question is should i get a catted Y or not and if i do/dont should i go with a custome with the flowmaster merge or just get the kooks?

No cats here and I love it. and no one can really smell it unless they're standing behind my car and the wind blows it in their direction.

it doesnt smell that bad btw just a light smell if your too close! i can barly smell mine when standing behind it. as for the Y i went with custom and worked out great for me. if i had to do it again id go with custom. flowmaster merge is excellent. gd luck.

i was more worried about drivin down the road and having someone following me and it smelling bad. maybe im just a lil to worried about it and if i get a custom Y i can always get cats added if i dont like it. how much do you think a custom Y would run me?
