For those who have removed when installing headers or gutted their cats how are things so far? Any issues with how the car runs and how do you like the sound. I'm set to do some exhaust mods tomorrow.

I never run cats on a performance car. Love the sound and since I have a blower I don't have to worry about melting any.

Had headers without cats on my 06' LS2 & loved the sound, never any issues. Scheduled to have the same done to my 12' GS next week & as stated above I am going with a supercharger soon so why not.
