I believe it to be the nature of the N52 inline 6 design. To me, the burble option goes well with no cats, because if you want that extreme burble and pop, you likely also want a loud-af exhaust in general.

In my opinion, keeping one set of cats on the car is the sweet spot for most. Personally, I'm beginning to feel that even the typical PE + secondary cat delete is too loud... and am actually searching for a solution that is in between that and the PE by itself. I desire just a *bit* more noise out of my exhaust, but in all honesty have been staring at my SuperSprint mid-pipes in my office for months because.. well, I already think they're going to be too obnoxious for my tastes. I really wish the PE was a bit louder in the car, because when I rev it with my door open... well it's just effing perfect sounding.

Oops, that was quite a ramble.. but yeah..
I'll trade you a free tune for the SS midpipes - catless right?

Wonder if it would still be quiet with the stock muffler. I'm old and boring now so I don't really want a loud exhaust (the exhaust on my car when I was 19 would wake the dead - been there, done that, bought and sold the T-shirt). I don't want to put headers on this car either, but I don't care much about having secondary cats.
