I'm not sure but I don't think you can add a cat to the offroad pipe. If you can it will probably cost more than the hi flow one. :rolleyes:

There 4 diiferent kinds of pipes:
1. Alum off road (no cats)
2. Alum off road (with cats)
3. Steel off road (no cats)
4. Steel off road (with cats)

The first one is the cheapest and the 4th one is the most expensive. I think it goes for over $200 bucks. I went with the alum no cats with a borla cat-back system. There is very little drone in my car. Depending on where you live and how ong you plan on having your car is also a decision on wich pipe to get. Here in MI, I will probably get 3-4 years before the pipe starts rusting. I should have gone with the steel, since the borla is stainless steel. Maybe next year I will upgrade to the steel.

Aluminum off road.

You can always put a cat in it later if needed/wanted for less than the difference now.

Read my post, 15.4 @89.......when you get the chance in Performance, you'll understand why. I think I should send the damn Y back to them for false advertisement, claiming 10hp @wheels only to actually see your car get slower, sheeeeezzzz mad
