If you gut the cats, and have true duals expect it to be raspy.

ya i was expecting it to be a lil raspy but i figured it wouldnt quite be as bad as true duals with no mufflers

i dont really mind the tone of the mufflers i just want it louder

i would cut the cats off completely but i dont have a welder and one of the cats has the flange at the end of it

that flange is a *****, expessially if you dont have access to a welder. Local muffler shop should be able to do it for about $40 itll be louder and a little bit more raspy

Local shops won't do it around here, gotta find the after hours place and a little side cash to get it done. Should sound pretty damn good!
