It will be really really loud. Make more hp and prolly a little less lowend. On the downside, the truck will not be streetable.

I ran with no catback for about a month. It SUCKED. Loud ass hell, sounded like a dump truck, fumes bled into the cab and the worst part was I couldn't hear the Eaton. Lost a little midrange too. I wouldn't do it unless you had too. And if you're thinkin about just straight pipes, I wouldn't do that either. Mac makes a decent catback for not a lotta money, sounds pretty wicked at WOT.

yeah, I'm gonna be ordering a Bassani cb here before too long. After hearing a bunch of soundclips and some local guys with it, I like it the best.

I have to agree I ran mine for a weekend without the catback(still had the stock cats on) I pulled it hoping my Bassani would arrive early.
Raspy sound and a nice drone while running down the freeway. Get a maggy or Bassani they don't do much for HP but the sound is worth it.

Exacty why mine came off, only replace Bassani with Mac and early with on time, and by on time I mean 3 weeks late.

i run just cats on my 93 L with longtubes, sounds good and it doesent have to be loud unless you realy hit the gas. if i was you i would take it off and if you dont like it you could always put them back on!
