Yes I'm getting rid of the cat and I'm looking at the dual kit from CC but whether or not to get them with the headers is my debate. If I could find a used set of manifolds I'd use those and keep my originals.
The CC exhaust system is designed to fit the block-hugger headers that come with it, the stock exhaust manifolds won't fit, I'm pretty sure. So on the one hand, that's bad because it limits your options, and it's nice to have options, but on the other hand, it's good, because it makes your choice simpler.


Keep the shiny side up!

Actually they have both kits, one that fits stock exhaust manifolds or for an extra $300 you can opt for the coated headers.
