LTs, no cats (I hate disloyal animals, I prefer dogs).

Shorties belong in the trash, unless she comes up to my waist, then I likey.

Why are you guys adding cats if you're already illegal w/ the LTs?

-The GMMG will cost $$$$$$! But if for whatever reason I have to get rid of my headers at least I can get stock manifolds and bolt up to the GMMG.
-With Duals I'd be screwed! But its so much cheaper to go with Duals and I hear they sound better. I'm worried about smelling like exhaust though, that would suck! Also, Duals seem like they're so loud, they attract unwanted attention.......maybe cats will help though.
Thanks again guys!
