You can replace the CAT with a mid-pipe, keep the OEM exhaust and increase the sound for $300. If you don't like the sound you can replace the CAT and sell the mid-pipe here.

yeah midpipe is prob ur best cheapest bet....either buy one or have one made.....basically just get a "straight" pipe from ur headers to the catback section of the exhaust deleting the CAT however if u have emissions going without cat you will NOT pass
