If it's an NA, you'll need enough backpressure in the air tube to power/trigger the sixport actuators

First...don't argue with the answers you're given. If you already know, then why ask?

Second...if you went straight-pipe from either the manifold back or removed the #3 cat you will NOT have adequate backpressure to operate the 6-port sleeves propperly.
