People in my area are to stupid. They think if you have a loud car, your speeding. My hooker is really quiet, but my friend gets **** all the time with his loudmouth-no cats. We go the speed limit and people always yell "SLOW DOWN."
Makes me want to stop and rip a burnout if their driveway.

Actually, none at all. It pops only when I let it idle down while driving in gear, I have to be on the gas a hair to get it to do it. My setup actually uses this open exhaust very well. It's deep and you can feel it, lots of people here know my car when it goes down the road. Most people think it's a stroker at the track cause of how it sounds.

Just cut your cat off, and run it from there, it will sound good... and not break anything. I ran mine like that for a long time because I was going to put my headers in, and didn't wanna have to try and cut **** while doing it.

That's why I didn't say anything, I thought I'd let the jury decide.

Running no O2 sensors causes your car to run extremely lean so be very careful when you take off the O2 on the driverside. It messes with the computer and keeps it from learning the air to fuel ratio. It will never go into closed loop mode because it is reading the outside air instead of the exhaust . Will cause the motor to run lean and if it runs lean, the motor just chews itself up because the cylinder temp gets to high.
