I would never consider running straight pipes and no cats.

That may not be too bad with the cats. As long as its just for sound bc it may feel a bit slower off the line without mufflers then again the cats may help out a bit with that. Str8 pipes with cats may not be that bad sounding though heard it on a gt a few years ago it didnt sound too bad he had the factory midpipe with no mufflers.

Thanks for the compliment and you're welcome.

But keep in mind the 4V sound will differ from a 2V sound. Will that hrlp or hinder your situation? I don't know. But I look at it this way, It cost me $40 to have the muffler deletes made and a hour or so to put them in. Compared to buying diff catbacks/midpipes to get the sound you are looking for. Start cheap and go from there.

Personally I get bored too often for my own good with my exhaust combo, so as it sits now, I have Catted H and can put on MRT Max Thunder mufflers, Magnapack mufflers (which I'm selling though) or the muffler deletes. If I get the urger I'll swap CB sections and drive with it for a month or so then do something else LOL.

I wanted an exhaust that is good for long trips (it I make one) I'll use the MRT mufflers, if I want to be louder I'll go SSS or Magnapacks, if I want to be obnoxious I'll use the deletes lol
