Full Catless Question.

I have been thinking about getting headers very soon and I think ive narrowed it down between two of them. I want to run EL and was looking at agency power and tomei has anybody had good or bad experiences with the two of them? Also noise factor... I have no problem with loud pissed off sounding exhausts to me the louder the better but I was wondering has anybody gone completely catless and can tell me roughly how much louder it is from just deleting the secondary cat? I already have an invidia catless front pipe and the evo 3 exhaust so its pretty loud for now. Thanks!

I heard some people had problem Agency Power header. i would go with Tomei.
since you already have catless front pipe and evo 3 CB, you'll be super loud with header.
if you don't care about being loud, then go for it. i used to run my RSX-S full catless with K-Pro and loved it. i am too old enough to handle all troubles from neighbors because of being too loud. lol

What about a catted header? I am running the berk catless front pipe and the muffler delete. I also don't want it super loud and raspy. I was thinking about the el catted header. Thoughts on catted el and uel headers?

If you want maximum gains, don't go for catted headers.

I'll probably wait to get any kinda header until I go FI. Probably AVO or rocket bunny.

I've seen that video, needless to say they were sensible and took off the straight pipe. They were just testing around with it. Although if I did that I would need new ear drums.

For street use: catless header + catted front pipe = optimum. Otherwise - either rasp and stench or performance sacrifice.
