Keep stock cat, get inspected, remove stock cat for midpipe, profit.

Repeat annually as needed.

I did it once, besides taking the original bat cat off.
I'm lucky, I have a 2 year option.

lmfao I was considering that.... that would be a pain in the ***. but I can use my bfs brothers address. I just have to check if it is considered Northern VA. lol I'll figure it out. So I took a video and showed my bf and he said "I don't know why you would want your car to sound like that".. lmfao he's just jealous. to think the video didn't even do it justice.. it was much louder in person

Swapping the cat for the midpipe is relatively simple...especially after the 1st time as the rust won't be as built up. You're talking 30 minutes to get it done and last over the period of a year and gives you an excuse to work on your car.

Lazy *****..

BHR pipe & OEM exhaust sounds good, imo.
What was wrong with your AC?

8 cylinders likely burnt better hence sweeter smell than 4...

Then again a lot of the classes we ran were methanol based fuel

I find scents during time of good memories from the past many times is nice to savor mainly because of memories it brings. Exception can be made from of course nasty scents.

Growing up at the race track and traveling a lot, pretty much all the commonly used fuels I enjoy and bring back nostalgic memories every time from the past.

Saving jerky is like putting an open beer back in the fridge; that's just un-American.

I ALWAYS save a bag of jerky for just in case scenarios...

Jesse when are you trying to get this done? I know my brothers are down for the next meet as well. Is bill going to get an 8? I know my brother bill wants one now but he wants to swap the motor out.
