I currently have a SLP bullet with stainless tips, stock y pipe and cats, stock headers. What would be the result of just having the cats removed? Would it make much difference in sound and performance? My guess is the car would breathe a little better, pick up a little power, but how much impact on sound with the slp and Y? Thx

X2^ just installed my e-cutout on the I pipe of the exhuast right before it goes over the axle. It sounds awesome Specialy at WOT. When I get around my aparments I just shut it off. I paid $180 for it and had it installed and wired in for $150 so just depends what you want. Here's the link to the group buy from one of sponsers which is by far the cheapest I could find them with a 4yr warranty.

i had the issue when i first got my 98 with not alot of money and wanting a good sound. i picked up a ory from a friend that went l/t's and didnt have the need for it. and got a slp lm2 from ws6store for 375. i loved it but nothing beats the sound of longtubes. i would get a slp then save up get a set of l/t's

This gets really old and I wish everyone would just listen to this and believe it, for it is the truth: BACKPRESSURE IS NEVER GOOD FOR POWER PRODUCTION/PERFORMANCE! IT IS NOT YOUR FRIEND! REDUCING BACKPRESSURE DOES NOT HURT TORQUE! IT ONLY INCREASES HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE!
Got it? Good.

I love my Hooker! Sounds only slightly louder that stock at idle and cruising. Screams pretty good at full throttle. Not overly loud. I guess I am getting old. When I am just cruising around I don't like the loud drone you get with most systems. I also love that there is virtually no rasp at all with the Hooker system.

I was really impressed with the BBK longtubes and Ypipe i installed on my car. along with a moroso spiral muffler it has a nice low rumble at idle and screams at WOT. the muffler ran me about 50 bucks and the headers and y pipe were 350. best fitting headers i have installed yet
