Hey guys i figured i would ask the experts over here my dillema of the day. I will soon be the proud owner of a brand new set of Pacesetter Long Tubes and an ORY pipe. BUT i need to have it fitted with cats and therein lies my dillema. I need to know which cats to buy. I know chases Magnaflow cats took a on themselves but he was F/I and i am N/A although F/I Is in my future. I have heard of random tech cats and car sound cats but i dont know crap when it comes to cats so some one please point me in the right direction. and will i have any problems driving the truck to the Muffler shop for the cat install without the rear O2's installed or do i need to have the cats fitted before the install???

 

You can't drive your truck for more than 10 miles or your truck will spontaneously combust.

Just kidding. You will run a little rich, but you can make it to the exhaust shop without cats as long as it isn't like 100 miles away.

 

its only like 5 miles buti need to know which cats to pick

 

magnaflow makes a good "stock" replacement, not the high flows

 

Well i need a good high flow so where do i go from here

 

Do you absolutely HAVE to run with Converters?

 

that's a big fat negative. BUT you will either have to have a tune, or run O2 simulators called O2 sims

You exhaust will smell like the older carb style engines

 

Hell man...get it tuned out & run wihtout the cats! That's a no brainer.

 

Can't, Harris County is an Emissions County. We Have Sniffers. Trust me i have the ORY pipe and i'd love to run without cats but i cant

 

Harris County

as in Houston? . . . they don't sniff on all years, or at least they didn't on my 02. Just plugged in and that was it.
