alyolles Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Ok so this may sound kind of stupid but I have an 05 LGT with SPT CBE and a shorty DP with not sure what brand back half. Would it be ok to literally just remove catt (not in the DP the normal one) so I just have everything coming out the DP and the rest sort of just hanging there? I am asking before doing because im not sure if something may melt or if the rest of the exhaust will fall off by just being on the hangars. Thanks!

Max Capacity Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Just unbolt it, start the car and see how loud it is. If it's to loud just bolt it back up. The cat in the DP knocks out a lot of the sound. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

alyolles Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Im not worried about how loud it will be as honestly, I'd like it as loud as possible. (Obviously if for whatever reason its a problem, I could just bolt it back up.) Im just asking if it would be safe to do because I dont want to melt something or break something on the exhaust from it just being on the hangars. If possible I would just like to completely remove the catt and have everything coming out the DP but keep the mufflers there so no one (cops) gets suspicious.

BDII Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 You should run the exhaust back into the cabin for maximum sound. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxkita Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I removed the oem mufflers from the oem exahust system. have a invidia catless dp. It was very loud. However, at lower rpms, sound was ok. at 4000rpm and up, it was pretty loud. Have a video that I can upload tonight (needs a bit of trimming) Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyolles Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Yea I have a catted DP and when we were doing the hawgzaust mod we pulled the mufflers and it was loud... Id really like to see what it sounds like with the only restriction in the entire system being the catt in the DP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxkita Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 just add a 3" straight pipe to the rear from the DP. That noise gets tiresome after awhile. Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyolles Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 That sounded pretty badass. Well while im home from school for the summer ill just take the catt out, and if it bothers me ill just throw it back in. Hopefully by the end of august Ill have money and just buy a 3" pipe straight back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I say it will be so loud you can't talk to anyone who is a passenger inside the car on the highway. That's how loud my Pro Lab Tuning exhaust was. That's with its mufflers on. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).
