Sorry for reviving a semi-dead post. I think I will do this, thanks for the information! I spoke to my friend who's straight piped about my situation. Living here in Oregon, we have DEQ checks every two years but I guess I'm settled on going with the Catless JDL UEL and just switch out to stock headers whenever DEQ check is needed. I don't mind noise as long as I'm not dealing with drone, which I heard the Perrin is good at eliminating. Thanks everyone!
