I'm leaning towards no cat but then I might be stuck with the stock header. If I get a cat, I might be able to get away with a catless header.

My inner tree hugger is sad at all you people wanting to go catless... yeah I know it still has one in the header.

I went high flow catted on the downpipe/frontpipe, and catless on the header. Zero smell at all from the exhaust, hippie approved.

also I think Perrin saw a 1hp increase on the overpipe replacement?? so there is a minor benefit. For me, I like the idea of removing it as a potential bottleneck, especially for people that are going with new headers. All that improved flow might be bottlenecked by that nasty stock overpipe.

You still haven't thrown a CEL? Here they just do the obd check and I want to pass that.

I ordered the testpipe directly thru Motive. Pricing is on their site. Jason is great to deal with and awesome with communication. I should be recieving it Friday and installing on Saturday. I will try to get it dyno'd next week.

Sounds good I have been talking to them quite a bit through their facebook page too. He mentioned they will also be working on a full cat back and header in the future and possibly a front strut bar.

I am curious why in the cat version they went with a 300 cell count instead of a 200.

We were actually misinformed by the manufacturer of the cats originally. They are actually 200-cell - we've updated our website and we apologize for any confusion, thanks!

Got it today. Very high quality piece. Welds look good and flanges are nice and thick. It comes with gasket, nuts and bolts, install instructions w/ pics and a free t-shirt. Thanks to Jason @ Motiv.
