Errr what I mean is I'm not gonna bother buying new cats for my new exhaust. I can think of 100 other things I could use the money on.

No wonder its raspy.. Thats one of the worst combo for rasp.

If you want to get rid of that sound put a decent catback on it like a magnaflow. I really hate those SLP LM ones..

Idk I think I can do a pretty reasonable dual setup, I'm thinking I can get a couple decent size mufflers to fit behind the axle but its going to require some custom work.

The spare tire compartment is in the way on the passenger side so I'm gonna talk to the welder/fabricator guy down the road from me and see what he thinks about cutting the bottom off it and raising it up about 4 inches.

Then to get the pipe over the driver side axle I'm gonna need to put in a little heat shield or get something to go over the wires that are there. I know its a lot of work but it would be worth it to me for sure. Regardless, whatever I do the car is going to be quieter.

Thats a lot of fuckin work for duals.. Not even worth it, other than to say you have duals. Not to be a prick but I doubt you make enough power to need em too.

Yeah not sure of the appeal besides bragging rights? You can still have a great sounding exhaust with a Y pipe.
