Need help with headers

Im in the process of ordering a set of shorty headers and i want to delete the first set of cats. Is there a company that sells replacement straight piping for this section of the exhaust? or am i just going to have to gut the cats?

A decent exhaust shop should be able to replace the cats for you with straight pipes

At the price of shorty headers it seems long tubes would be the way to go. After you do all the mid pipe work your at almost 4K at least that is what i was told from

Agreed, if I hadn't have picked up my Evosport shoties for such a good deal I'd have gone the route of LT's from Eurocharged. $2100 or is a sweet deal.
