My car hs no cats at all due to the sho-shop Y pipe and MSDS headers. I would suggest going to a muffler shop that you trust really well and tell them that you want a pipe made that will directly bolt into the piece where the cat is and tell them that it is for when you go to the track, because as far as I know they can do that for you as long as they are not the ones that are removing it. I was going to go with that method but the I decided to go with the Sho pipe.I haven't had any trouble with the Y pipe. Is there something that I need to worry about? I haven't heard of any issues.
