The UPR X-Pipe with Cats is only $299.......as opposed to many others that are close to $400, it is a really good price

I have it and it sounds NICE!! I could not believe the difference in sound after I installed it.....and I already had my headers and Flowmasters on there......

in northeast wisconsin it also depends on the county/city. 20 min south of me and they sniff the pipes, 20 min north and they do complete inspection, and in my home town it is illegal to remove factory emissions but they do not check at all, no sniffers no visual no checks. i like living here

It is definitely far from quiet......even when cruising......but it is not too loud where it gets annoying......then again, I love that sound so much, I may be the wrong person to ask

I just purchased a hi flow cat back to pass emissions this past December and then we moved to a county with no emissions, go figure.
