Those big, ugly pipes..............

I don't know what part of the country you live in but
in my home state it's not a good idea to remove the
cats. We just replace them with hi-flow units that
keep our Gs smog legal. If you don't have smog
police like we do in Ca. I guess you can do what ever
you want....LOL Sounds like you have a
ride with good mods, take good care of it!
