test pipes make it raspy. some people like it some do not.

Hi flow cats is less raspy. some people like it some do not

You wont pass emission with test pipes, but you will have hi flow cats

Seems like I've mentioned this a few times before, the most restriction is in the OE cats so without rasp or having your G impounded for removing smog equipment it's best to go with HFCs. They're 49 state legal and will give you no less than 10 RWHP, not bad for under $500....

ART pipes. Best performance, no rasp, reduces drone.
