Catted Y-Pipe vs ORY?
Looking at various LT's, I came across some catted y-pipes and various ORY's. Now with emissions being of no concern....
Is there a noticeable sound difference in the catted y's vs ORs?
Is there less rasp with a catted y-pipe?

The y pipe isn't the best. But they can sound decent with the right setup. I prefer cats. I think they sound better.
