yes most likely~the air is gonna bang around in thR b4 it gets out.... still prolly have more flow than w/a cat but... I gutted mine and ran a pipe through~it's def. the best way. -
will it cause some restriction? yes. but very very very minimal. the stock 2 1/4 piping is more of a restriction than anything else. you say that you noticed you lost some power, but actually you didnt. becuz you freed up the flow that power shifted up a little more. it is not worth the time taking it apart and putting straight pipe in. you will not notice any gains.<a href=\"http://cardomain.com/id/articacid\" target=\"_blank\">2002 35th Anniv.

instead of a cat~no; instead of a straight pipe~yes.Comment

there is no way to garuntee that the ses light wont come on. some cars will set it, others wont. there is no free mod.
a high flow cat and straight pipe will yeild about the same gains. its not worth not having a cat. any time you free up flow your going to gain, not lose performance.<a href=\"http://cardomain.com/id/articacid\" target=\"_blank\">2002 35th Anniv.

theres nothing wrong with that setup. it should sound ok. all of the ones i heard with out a cat had more rasp.
is there a reason you dont want a cat? for 50 bucks you can geta highflow cat and be legal and still have just as much flow.<a href=\"http://cardomain.com/id/articacid\" target=\"_blank\">2002 35th Anniv.
