This thread... I hope this isn't a serious install and that the OP is trolling everyone. At first I laughed, then as I read on I think this dude is serious... Now I am just sad for him...

Everyone on there is coming to his defense like..Well, it is about durability and still flows better than stock.... They completely jackleg everything and are good with it instead of doing it the right way.

the guy was dumb enough to buy a second set of cats vs cutting the other set off the headers that wouldn't work, that alone should tell you what we're dealing with here

A fool and his money.


Better yet why not just weld that one tube up at the collector and vent the primary to atmosphere.

It is weird. There are a lot of general mods that they discuss the pros and cons of over there that the rest of the automotive community came to a consensus on a decade ago or longer. I find at least a thread a day that leaves me scratching my head. I try not to be a dick there though because I don't have a ban stick for backup, but this one just needed a response.
