1. is it possible to take the cats off my stock h pipe and reuse them? catted h pipes are so damn expensive and i know a guy that could weld them
2. do the stock cats suck enough for me to have to replace them?
3. lets say i only spend $100 on a summit brand H pipe, is this a bad idea?

no, its really not.. Your mid-pipe is only held in by 8 bolts... I can swap mine in less than 30 minutes

go with flowmaster you cant go wrong! slp are good but a little agressive for me. flowmasters with the right mid pipe and headers sounds real good! if you have to get cats those mid pipes get real expensive i paid 110 for my bbk mid pipe and one with cats is like 400
