Where in Iowa do you live? I live in Davenport, around here cops dont say much as long as you have cats on. You could cut the mufflers completly off and get away with it.

If you want the absolute loudest setup possible, get some custom open headers.
If you want to spend money, get some long tubes, o/r X, & LM1's

DONT RUN OPEN HEADERS! For one, its illegal. For two, it sounds like ***. And last but not least, you will more than likely LOSE power. Just add longtubes and your car will be louder and faster.

You have a Mac catback and O/R H and you want louder?
You could always go buy a Harley....

cats are needed in states to pass the emissions, some states do not require emissions testing so you can get by without cats, mufflers help muffle the tone in the exhaust system

so if you have mufflers there is no need for cats???

cats for emissions to pass smog tests, mufflers for noise adjustment.

You already have 3' stainless tips with the Mac. If you got SLP you'll be getting 3.5' stainless tips. I would just have new mufflers put in as opposed to spending 450 bucks buying a whole new catback.

Plus I'm not really looking for speed, just sound.
