As much as I like a car that will run wild, and one that puts out a sound like it will...it is REALLY nice to hear a bunch of you on hear keeping an eye on emissions!
I know I am not one of the youngest (or oldest) people on the site, but I do think about the future for my kids. I have three of the little ones sitting here with me now...and I want things to be nice for them down the road!
However, if any of them say anything bad about my car...I will sell them for a buck!!
I am not a tree hugger or anything like that, but this is something that all true car nuts should keep in mind!

Mine isn't obvious at idle.....I like that. A bit louder than I'd like when I open it up (even on the freeway, people can hear it with their windows up). I still have the sleeper benefit off the line.

isn't the fine for gutting your cat, like $20,000? ouch. ive seen tests showing a highflow cat will actually give you just a hair more power than no cat. i run a highflow.
of course you'll deystroy our enviorment and so on and so on. alot of people don't care (not saying you do or don't) but if you get pulled over the cop will smell somthings up. not only that, you'll smell it, when your parked idleing, driving, warming it up in the morning. even if you could care less about the enviroment its more of a benifit to go highflow.
check ebay, you can get a highflow unit there new for $60 usually. thats were i got my carsounds cat and i love it.
i wouldn't risk the fine. even if there wasn't some huge fine its still not worth it
