well i hav got a full 21/2 inch system and pacemaker extractors without a "CAT" and i would highly reccomend this system but with the "CAT" because mine is far far tooo loud and with the "CAT" it will sound much much nicer, you will be looking at around $1200 for this type of system, and i notice a sure difference, i just ran my car at the drags and i got a 15.577sec 1/4mile at 144km/h but there is still alot of room for improvement.. my car is up in members rides and you can see exactly what i have done to my VT in there...

Running without a cat is expensive... will cost you $2k when you get EPA'd :)

Not to mention the carbon monoxide you will be pumping out.

isnt it against the law to not have a CAT converter. are you sure you mean a CAT anyway, sounds like you may mean one of the rear resonators or mufflers?
