I'm kinda either way on this so I didn't vote. I have no primary cat due to the header mod and I replaced the secondary cat with a high flow cat. No real gains from any of it except the larger pipe size and the Header flows better than the stock one. If you are not going for a full exhaust you probably shouldn't bother.
BTW - I still somehow pass emmissions for the last two years even though my two o2 sensors are 6" apart with nothing but a 2.5" pipe inbetween. I have no idea why.

You'll have to make a pipe if you really want a de-cat, or test-pipe set up. He could just gut the stock cat. I have a gutted one in my garage. --------------------  |
