i was wondering how much hassle it is to go from a h pipe with cats. to a O/R one.. and then back.. keeping in mind i have to put all the Air pump stuff back.. for emmision testing.. once a year.. do you guys thing its worth it..?
or just bite the bullet and buy a set of high flow catted h pipes..?

I think it is worth it. The swap only takes 30 minutes at most. But if you live in a place like cali I'd save up for a hi flow catted h-pipe. I've heard of a few people getting busted for driving around with no cats, but its up to you. Even then you might not pass the visual with an aftermarket catted pipe.

how does you car sound with the bbk equipment on the car..
the sound is really what im looking for here..i ordered a set of bbk unequel shorty headers.. but now im looking into.. the h pipe.. and well its the difference between 360 something and 150.. if it has the cats .. im really paying out the bum..

I still have a 2.25" catback so it could be louder. I bought the catted pipe just to be safe, but I'm considering selling it and getting an offroad pipe. It just isnt loud enough for me at the moment. I have a 2.5" catback coming in the mail so I will see how much that improves it.

yeah keep me posted on that.. id like to know.. about the change.. before i buy my own.. definitly post the change for me..

Yeah i'll let you know...I'm about 75% sure i'm going to sell my catted pipe and go for the offroad though. I keep going back on forth whether I wanna get rid of it since I paid so much for it and I'll get so little out of it.

But for now I'd say go for the offroad pipe. It's a very easy swap and well worth the time.

so you dont think it would be to much of a hassle to switch it back and fourth when it comes to emission time..
