I have the QTP catted Y. FYI, it hangs pretty low. I don't know the emissions stuff for IL but you can always gut some cats and weld them on around the outside. Also, without cats, you run into some pretty serious rasp.

How low does the QTP hang .. I mean .. Is it not worth buying? Or is it easy to get used to and live with?
