which ever you prefer...its up to you...its your car...you do what you want to do

With the cat, your car should be a little quiter, especially at high rpm. Without the cat, you'll get some black smoke when you shift and maybe some more power but a high-flow aftermarket model would be similar.

I should've added, even though there's no local testing, removing emissions equipment violates a federal law.

I would get a high flow cat like carsound thats what I have on my Accord. I bought it for 60 bucks off of a cb7tuner member. I think they are 100 new. You may get some rasp sound with a straight pipe

[lxmodcar]

Also your exhaust may smell like rotten eggs if its a straight pipe...yummy

You can get carsound cats off ebay for around 60 dolllars.

Seems to me I saw a Magnaflow high-flow cat for $67 in a HondaTuning article recently. You could go with the 2.5" diameter and if you have a header have a good exhaust guy cut off the smaller collector and make a custom 2.5" to match the cat.

Now maybe I can have access to the rest of this site?

I got my Magnaflow high-flow cat for like $80 or so.

If anyone is interested in a decent sponsorship shoot me a message for details.

you can also take off ur cat and ram all that mesh stuff out so there is no resistance. then you spend no money and it looks stock

if your cat is ''tore up'' you might as well put another cat back on....who knows you might have to have testing on your car in the future. ...side note, stock cat is more money than an aftermarket. later.
