yea removing the cats is good for about 10rwhp from what ive heard and i gained .4 tenths of a second with an O/R H and a CAI and 2mph in the 1/4, so i say go for it the sound is also amazing.

But yea you can buy a O/R midpipe and mils for about 200 total and install it yourself so good luck.
A 0.4 second gain in the quarter with just a midpipe and CAI?? [sm=insomnia.gif]

i think that price is each, so your looking double. I used the DIY mils. you can search the forums for how to make them. I actually paid 30 bucks for them off ebay but im not sure that guy is still selling them. they work perfect, just make sure you wire them correctly.

Dont just gut the cats get an o/r midpipe. I saw 3mph in the trap from o/r and custom tune.

Just make your own MIL's if you dont want to pay the 50ish dollar's for some brand new. Their is a link somewhere? I think the parts costed a total of like 8 dollars from radioshack. Or I am sure someone on the forums has some they would be willing to sell you cheap.

buy an o/r x + sell your 4 cats on ebay for probably more than you paid for the x/h pipe

2 good things if you take your cats out are: 1. you gain some hp. 2. you can sell your cats for good money
