Finally going to redo my exhaust to gain clearance - remove resonators , add performance cat , and all new pipe from to back to front 

Besides the awkward and painful positions to do exhausts without a 6ft lift , I kind of enjoy crafting an exhaust system . 
 

I just buy and bunch of mandrel bends and pie cut what I need . Dual 2” gets tight :-0

Starting the first leg getting to the cat . 
 

Might challenge myself to TIG it

That's an interesting one.

Will the Performance cat act like a resonator (do you hope that)? Do you have in mind to use 2 lambda sensors? I'm curious about the autcom. Could be also something for me.

"performance cat" sure got my attention, madcaw!  What brand/part # are you using?  Thanks!

CARB approval would be your biggest challenge

Yes, that’s right (slaps own head)!  ☹️

It’s a Magna flow I think - not many choices 2” 2 in&out . 

Please, make a post/comment when you get this squared away with a video of how it sounds - I'm a sucker for the twice pipes sound! Especially a custom job like this!

Are you in a part of the world that requires a cat? Or is there some other reason you feel the need to add one?

Been running two Lamba’s . The cat is for smell, convenient packaging for two pipes .

Sexy. Did a great job!

Well this is going to be a slower process then anticipated. My spool gun is giving me fits and has forced me to actually learn how to TIG . I guess no time like the present to teach an old dog a new trick . I have played around with TIG, but I’m a rookie for sure . With a bad back I couldn’t refill my CO2 tank and the Argon tank was about full, so.... 

Almost have the first legs of the exhaust  to the cat done ,which was going to be the hard part . I think I gained about an inch in ground clearance or maybe more . Got to get this right , because this will be the last time
