Im gonna order the aluminzed Y-pipe from sho shop. Anyone recommend the off road pipe? I know it's illegal on the street but is it worth the risk? Any comments on anything here with Y-Pipe? Thanks for your help! :rolleyes:

in Cali, it really isn't worth it to not get the y w/ the cat. You may not run into any trouble, but IF you do, it will cost you way more than the $100 difference for the one w/ the hi-flow cat.
It's all about balance.

I love clean air, so I'm voting for keep the cat. You'll notice an awesome power gain even with the cat, I did.
