need to pass emissions
Hey guys, i really need to pass emissions come august. do these hi-flow cats bring down the toxins to the levels needed? I have heard that to pass you need like 2 of the hi-flows. If that is so i guess i'll have to get a regular one because i need it to pass ect. and i havent found someone that could "help" me for a decent price. how much hp would I lose going to one from a muffler shop or so? will i gain any back putting my cut-out after it?

Just put a stock cat on and you should pass. you also can get a muffler shop to put bolts on either side of the cat so you can take it off and put on a straight pipe after the emissions. I have heard of a few people who do that to get around emissions.
