if you just want sound, it'd be easy and cheap to run the stock exhaust with just the muffler modified/baffles removed

you're paranoid about test pipes btw lol

I don't need another exhaust. I'm doing custom piping
And I know, that's why I was going to change it?

going back to stock cats seems like a terrible solution as these vq's feel like tractor motors up top with them in...

why not just go HFC?

This is kind of like a trial and error situation. I'll have them do the exhaust piping, then see how it sounds then if needed I'll put the cats back on. I'll keep you guys updated

Ask Critical, he did it himself. The steps are pretty simple, but theres 2 bolts that may give you a hard time. I payed a shop a couple hundred bucks to just do it for me.

From the stories I've read, it was well worth it

The demon bolts. Never in my life had i faced with a stubborn puny little bolts, i paid a shop to remove it and slapped test pipes. Couldn't even be more happier

Hey everyone, I know that it's been far too long since I posted an update about my car/exhaust. I tried to take a few videos of my car when I first changed up my exhaust but my GoPro was giving me issues for awhile so I simply gave up trying for awhile. I don't really have a video of start up or anything really but I will post the few videos that I do have so that hopefully you have an idea of what it sounds like. The videos that you see are from after my tune which actually made the exhaust noticeably quieter then when I first got it.

But anyways here you go
