i would advise against straight piping. sure, delete your cat if you want, but your car is gonna sound like crap without a resonator or mufflers.

Get a downpipe and be done.

and where would i buy such a down pipe that eliminates my cat? does it just bolt on orrr???????

ZZ Performance
W Body Store
Hogan Performance W-Body 3" Stainless Steel Downpipe with Off-Road Pipe: 3800 Performance
Just get a 3" bolt in catless downpipe.
Up to you if you want stainless or mild steel.
This will eliminate your cat and bolt right in.

I agree... or find a local who can weld... and slip him so cash to hook you up. Take him your stock dp...then cut the cat...and put a straight pipe.Originally Posted by matt5112

yeah see my girlfreinds uncle is going to do it... he will take off the down pipe and remove it and use a straight piece of pipe and weld it on... but he said it needed to be bent?? or soemthing..... i think that would be costly... he is also replacing one 02 sensor and i have an emmulator...

Why would you replace the o2 sensor if you have an emulator...unless you mean your replacing the top o2. Also...nothing needs to be removed DP wise...he just needs to cut out the cat/u-bend...weld in the piece of straight pipe...and done. Zip tie your emulator to your frame or something...and throw out your old rear o2. Problem solved.

You mean it makes you sick to hear how loud it is?
11-03-2010

Right..Isolate yourself from it while torturing the poor guy next to you. Gotcha

Your uncle is correcr. You need to spend much money on it. But one way to lessen your expenses that if you have an acquaintance that gives you discount.

He has had it fixed for a few days now.

And it was fairly cheap 50$ for labour and 20$ for parts
12-10-2010
What parts do you need to gut a cat besides a BFSD you don't care about?
I see the labor...but parts? LOL Cut out cat...gut it...reweld.
12-10-2010
Maybe parts $20 equals case of beer while you do it?
12-10-2010
Or the gas to get there?
