Ryan,
I discussed cat changes with JBA and they said they cant get CARB approval
if they mess with the cat. They try to be CARB'd on everything they sell so
they wont get hassles and it does seem to be catching... Ill ask again but
you might want to just go with a 318 style Y pipe (they will be making
those) and Ill see if they are looking at 3" or not. At any rate their Y
pipe will hook up to the stock mflds and their headers (or gibsons) so It
might work on the R/T as well for thos non CARB states/towns/provinces out
there (You're the lucky dog). You might want to call Jeff and ask him about
the plan for the Y pipes!

Hey Bruce,
You lucky dog. While you're down there ask them about doing a 3" cat inlet
version so that we can get rid of that silly 2 in 1 out cat. I think that
would
straighten out/improve the overall flow since a cat doesn't seem like the
optimal place to join two air streams.
Wouldn't it make more sense to merge the streams pre-cat?
