yeah, $80 is a lot for just a U-bend delete. I got my 3" bolt-in catless DP for about $100 plus shipping. I didn't need a torch but I did soak the bolts with PB Blaster and they came out fine.

Well being that I don't have much money would this be an option? http://www.wbodystore.com/grandprix/w-body-store-25-downpipe-p-181.html Get a new cat (not sure if its high flow?) and complete downpipe 2.5" and its only 30 bucks more...I could do that.

If you plan on staying N/A yea that is fine. However if you plan to go FI then save up for the 3"

Are you sure that DP has a cat? The picture doesn't show one. Its a steal if thats with the cat...

do you have emissions testing?
if you do, you'll fail, guarantee.
Yes, you'll notice a bit of a difference, louder especially with no cat.

The smell of your exhaust will be much more noticeable, smelling more of fuel etc. Also you will get a nice poof of black smoke when you punch it.

Do not go with a 2.5" DP. Go 3" NA or SC.
