I was looking at getting the first one high flow cats with xpipe. I have an Hpipe now with factory cats.

Will it make that much of a difference. MY car sounds kinda ricey when it gets in the higher rpms. Also is there any preformance gain i would get from this instead of the Hpipe.

It will make it a little better sounding, but I'd go off road if I could, and do/did, get away with it.

i would go catless but i jsut dont want to take any chances.

I mean i jsut want the H pipe gone for the most part. If i get a universal Xpipe and get an exhaust shop to do it will it do the same as this one, except for the fact this one has cats in it. I kinda want to jsut leave the cats alone

Well get the high flow cats if you don't want to remove the cats, although the car will sound 100% better, but anythings better than stock cats, they're so damn restrictive that it aint even funny.

that is what i was thinking consedering there are 4 cats.

I am jsut tring think of the best deal universal Xpipe 60 bucks 2 high flow cats 120 VS. the x pipe with cats for 199 + i have to have the 02 extenders which is 40 bucks more.

But I think the pipes one will be cheaper to install,

Who knows i might jsut go down to my muffler shop and talk with the guy.

If any one has the pipes xpipe with high flow cats please give me some feedback on them.

Well personally, I'd just go ahead, save up the money, and get the aftermarket exhaust, it's gonna mount better, and give you more options in the future over a custom universal x pipe, not to mention it will probably be better quality.
