Depend on who and how they make the header. The header I had made does delete the cat, but I used a defouler to trick the ecu.

This is a defouler. It has a pen size hole at the end. It restricts the amount of air being read so it thinks it still has a cat:

So far so good. It's been almost 7 months and nothing. So I just assume nothing could leak now. I used VHT Nightshade red to paint my taillights. It's like $8 a can I think.

Hey Do Boy, this is the exact look I'm looking for, except I'll probably get the wheels in white. But I'm a wheel noob so I have no idea about the technical stuff. Do you think I'll run into any issues if I just duplicate your wheel and tire sizes, but on stock suspension?

Also, I know this is an extremely noob question, but I've searched and I can't find the answer. Why do you choose different sizes for the front and rear tires? What's the benefit of doing that?

Edit: Where did you get your Brembos from? Sounds like you took them off a used car. I'd get a set too, but new ones are just way out of my price range.
