dont know of any midpipe that bolt up to the stock cats, i believe all the mid pipes bolt up to the exhaust manifold. what if you get the o/r prochamber and switch back to stock midpipe for the emissions test, although thats a lot of work. or do what i do: find someone that will pass you on your test, with a little greasing of the palm if you know what i mean.

well this does bolt up to the stock cats but you need to cut your stock h pipe so it fits

I went with the full assembly xpipe from slp. It's just a bolt-on. It comes with cats, and you can take them off whenever you like by loosening a few clamps. Kind of a pain to get to the front sensors though.

(And some people have problems with rpmoutlet. My experience with them has been great though)

bassani bx...there's a video on youtube with stingers it stays deep with the high flow cats and you can also remove the cats and put straight pipes there without having to remove the entire mid pipe. I'm currently at work and youtube is blocked here so i can't find the video i think you can search bassani x pipe and you will find it. The poster is mattp

Well Guys, Please don't steal my deal, but Darkness7 from here emailed me and offered me a used magnaflow x-pipe with high flow cats for an extremely good price since he just bought an off-road pipe and has no need for this one?

Its in great condition and about 300 bucks less then the same one new...

Should I buy it? How can I make a purchase safe?

sounds like a good deal, and the high flow catsw/ x-pipe should get more hp than stock, that x-pipe is gonna make it scream atWOT, but i'm not sure how to make a safe purchase.
