Rushed the dry time and got some cracking, but regardless it works for now. I have to get new valve covers and when I do this I'm repainting everything with some house of kolors and not this spray paint ****.

How have the gutted cats worked out? Smell? Noise? Gains? I have someone who offered to do it for $150, and I know the Berks and Kinetix are at least double of that...

Thanks!

numair - I picked them up for like 40$. They were loud, but not as bad as straight pipes. Also the smell was still apparent... not as bad as test pipes. Gains is always hard to tell on the VQ. Pretty sure megan has some for 150$ that are pretty decent. I would not gut my cats for 150$
