it wont give you test pipe like performance, cause you still have your restrictive cat on there. it'd be the same as running open dp, then just reconnect it when you have emissions. also it would be a waste to get electronic ones in your situation, you might as well get the manual ones for cheaper, assuming your gona leave it running open until emissions...

but im thinkin about getting it myself, just because it sounds like an absolute beast when running open dp with a test pipe, and its fun to see people react. and for racing of course

So, do you have to cut a portion of your exhaust and install this in between the two? Where on the exhaust would you even mount this thing?
