If you do not have to pass emissions, then you can usually get away without having a catalyst. Be sure to remove the catalyst equipped sticker on the inside of the hood if there is one. Some mechanics look for this when inspecting cars if they're too lazy to visually check for one. The straight pipe will perform better than having a cat on there. If you can get away with it then go for it.

your car will be a bit louder without the cats...but you will deffinatly pick up some power. no cats with the factory muffler actually sounds pretty good.
