Yes that is what I meant. Took that off and car got a LITTLE louder but not much. Took out the rear cats and it got much louder but PERFECT. Eve my wife don't mind it, sounds really nice.

Nice System Ghostrider
Hey Ghostrider - I love that exhaust system you built. Thanks for posting the pics in this thread.
How does it run? sound?
I've had this warped idea of putting in an electric exhaust cutout after the [stock] primary cats - with the dump in front of the passenger rear wheel. I'd connect the cutout about where the two pipes bend back to the center of the car before the resonator. However, I can't come up with a design that will work because with the two primary pipes side-by-side on one side of the car, there's no apparent way to connect the inside pipe to get it to the outside on the passenger side. I was thinking of maybe putting in an H-pipe or X-pipe between the two primary pipes and connecting a single cutout from the center of the X-pipe. It's all probably a pipe dream anyway!!!
