is it possible to gutt the cat on the stock dp? if so has any one done this yet and how hard would it be to do? me and my dad did this to a clogged cat on a 98 camry and it sounded pretty good

 

you can do it no problem... but it will cause bad turbulance in the exhaust flow

 

oh realy what do u mean it will cause bad turbulance in the exhaust flow? and do u think it would be worth it?

 

yes... and no dont do it.. if you want to go to an exhaust shop and have them weld in a piece of tube if you dont want to buy a dp

 

yeah i guess so huh i dident think about that about how much do u think they would charge and do u know any one who has done this?........ i wanted to do it so it would look stock if a cop checks but it flows and sounds better

 

if your concerned about that... gut the stock cat, weld in a pipe in side of the cat so its a straight threw design this will require you to cut the pipe and reweld it once your finsihed

 

sounds like alot of work no one els has any in put on this??

 

this weekend im taking stock dp cutting out cat and rewelding a new peice of pipe in place where cat was hope sounds good

 

oh yeah thats the same thing i was thinkin about doing are u doing it ur self or having a shop do it for u?

 

im cuting cat out my self and getting dads friend to weld new pipe in than ill install it myself

 

oh ok cool well let me know how it turns out i realy want to the same my self

 

will do man hopefully ill get it done sunday but all depends on how the weekend goes i got finals soon so i should prob study for them lol

 

lol well good luck hope it sounds good u have got to get some sound clips so i know to do it or not lol

 

lol will do man i got a before already after i install it ill make one

 

Any one els have any in put on this? Any one els tryed this?? LOL come guys help me out good idea or bad?

 

Take off stock DP. Bang with hammer. Dump out catalytic substrate.

Not sure if it flows much better, as I understand the stock cats are pretty good for being stock. But, its worth a shot. It will definitely sound different, not sure if it would be better or not though.

 

sorry couldnt do it this weekend i got a extra stock dp so now i can try it ummm it might get done this weekend if i can make it out of town to go camping where my dad friend lives so he can weld it for me i can make any promises but u wont beable to tell if it sounds good or bad im running megan muffler

 

i hacked it up and got it welded today ill try to talk my dad into helping me install it tomorrow but we gotta pick up his new truck and my moms new nitro rt so i doubt will be tomorrow but ill keep you updated

 

oh yeah congrats on the new truck....yeah i dought it too lol but i guess i will just hafto take ur word for it good luck hope it sounds good
