Default Few questions dealing with cats

Hi,

Well to start off I think my exhaust is a little too loud. I love it, but a cop pulled me over, and gave me a ticket. My current setup is Pacesetter LTs, Pacesetter ORY and a dynomouth catback. So I want to quiet it down a little cause i do like drive hard with my car at times. My questions are can i add a cat/ cats to my pacesetter ory? just wondering if it will end up hitting the floor pans or anything. also would i have to to go with 2 cats or just one, i know the lts put the exhaust pipe closer to the DS. Finally, where can i get 3" high flow cats for cheap?

you could always just add a bullet style muffler to the I-pipe...that'd quiet it down...I'd reccomend A classic chambered powerstick they sound amazing

You can buy 3" magnaflows for like, $90 at any parts store. That'll getcha a little more legal.

cops in wisconsin prolly won't give a damn, if it's "too loud" it's too loud...doesnt matter what you have for exhaust, they can give you a ticket if you have mufflers and cats if it's still "too loud"...and they decide that. And if you get a REAL ******** cop and wanna get REAL technical, nothing aftermarket is legal at all in the exhaust anyway...

i suppose you are right but on all those slp papers that come with the catback they say 100% legal, it'd be nice to throw that in their face and be like says here it is. I was on my throttle good when he heard me but no matter what even idling aorund its still loud. I'll try and get a vid of it soon to post up here.
