Did you notice any power? Do you like the sound?

i like the sound just a bit louder. Power wise, on paper it should be there but can i feel it, not really. Wasn't expecting to either but I wanted to make the exhaust a little louder and this was the only way to go without touching the primary cats.

You can remove the 2nd cats and not throw a code.

well yea for headers you will need to get an O2 sensor for the code, but that's bc those are primary cats, not secondaries. Deleting secondary cats will not cause any error codes.

I'm still waiting to see the first person go in for a sniffer test with headers and the secondaries still installed. That'll probably be the deal breaker for me.

Do they sniff OBDII cars in CO? In AZ they just pull the data from the O2 sensors via the diagnostic port. There is still a visual inspection tho'.
