    Pre-cat delete, options....

    Down pipes, piggy pipes (gutted pre-cats), or cut out the precats and weld in pipe/flex-pipe in place. Down pipes cost cheddar, piggies take a while to gut out. Who's just deleted the pre-cats by cutting them out? If so, what did you use to bridge the gap? Pipe or flex-pipe?

    Secondary cats are bigger than primary.
    Here is a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxnYH3JONkE both cars got straight pipes, one of the cars both cats deleted, the other one only secondary.
    Zmey installed his mufflers back and it sounds very nice.
