My car has become louder in a good way with the secondary cat delete and the aftermarket exhaust module left on open, especially at start up

Same, the module has made a nice difference on startup, regardless of how long the car has been parked. Well worth it imo.

Can the exhaust module still be purchased? I thought Renntech was able to keep them from shipping to USA.

came from a shop in the UK before the shut down. Not likely to see anymore coming to Canada soon because of the virus.
