Their catback is listed at like $1200 or something until its back, the it'll be ~$400 again.

i may end up selling my j2 front pipe and just getting the 2.5" tsudo setup for now, upgrade to a real 3" solution once more reasonably priced options become available.
yea I know im boosting in the next year that's y I need the j2 so bad. plus its straighter then the tsudo as far as bends go

Wow those went fast! I actually gave my j2 cat back away for free and kept the catless front pipe. I should have sold it. I didnt know there was a high demand for them right now

Im runnunig the 2.75mm j2 catless front pipe, moded stock mid pipe to 2.5mm using stock resonator and made my own magnaflow axle back. Sounds great and no drone in cab. The biggest difference was when I added the catless front pipe. It really helped the powerband and torque dip
