need help..... removing exhaust
So im going to remove my exhaust from the secondary cats back just to see how it sounds before i drop the dough on a X-pipe and cat delete. How many hangers are there on the actual muffler? I found one by the tips, is there another towards the front of the mufflers? Do you have to remove the wheels or bumper to take it off? Thanks

No you don't have to remove to rear bumper to take the exhasut system out. The bolt by the secondary cats are the torq type so make sure you have the right size torq socket.
Just as a FYI, the driver's side catayst is a one piece assembly that includes the driver's side primary cat and both secondary cats. This means you won't be able to remove just the secondary cats to hear the exhaust note without them.
That is correct. You MUST cut if you want the secondary cats out. Vadim at VRP did mine and I love them, but still have to cut.
Resonator back is simple and drops right down when undone. No bumper involved at all.

thats all I want to be is resonator back I just wanted to hear it and see if i like it. because i already have a quote for the resonator and 2nd cat delete and since that requires custom work that cost money. I thought it would be fun to do this, myself anyone ever done it? how does it sound?
