catted has the cats and off road doesn't. [8D] catted is ok for emissions, off road isn't. and catted will not be as loud.

Basically all H pipes are similar and will give you a similar sound. If you want a good sound that's not too loud get an Catted H. But if you want it louder with a good sound go O/R H. I have a MAC O/R H and I love it!

after doing one of the above^^^

consider the following

MRT makes the BEST H pipe,
i heard the MRT catted H with the same catback i have and it was nearly as loud as mine is with a MAC o/r H

your decision should be weighed on two things

1. if you have emissions testing, you will be required to have catylitic converters(actually, theyre required everywhere, some places dont check though)
and
2.it depends on where you live, do you have winters and do you drive throught them, if so, you'll want a stainless steel midpipe, not just a poopy MAC one

I have the Mac H-pipe and I love it. It sounds great and was simple to install.
