cats help alot and imo make the tone sound better and not so raspy. You dont loose very much hp from them either...it's probabally the easiest option

Why run one electric? Do you have one in the merge to the I pipe and one that is towards the back? I am lost.

found all the mufflers, hooker is $55.. flowmaster is $65, and a magnaflow is $70 or so.. im liking the hookers sound and it seems to keep LT/ORY cars pretty tame... what size piping is the Loudmouth looks like 2.5
