^Are the gains worth it? Can you "feel" it?

ha, honestly I hate these questions but I appreciate the way you framed it up with "feel".

Yes, it is absolutely worth opening the exhaust up.

Pre-cats are supposed to be a pain in the ass. J-pipe just depends on how rusted your bolts are.

yup, Jpipe is cake. I think I had to grind down one bolt... those cats, not signing up for that again.

Front cat is pretty easy but that rear one is a bitch. These mods are definitely worth it though

I know the combination of both Jpipe and 1 of the above is the way to go but if you had to chose only one, which one yields greater gain, quantifiable in "feeling" ? And I see the jpipe's out of stock on the website, any updates ?

The jpipe gave me more low end IMO while the PCDs gave me more passing power. After 4k rpms I could really feel how free the exhaust was with the PCDs.

I'm selling my jpipe MTLTL

RV6 has to custom modify/fab the j-pipe from 4G TL j-pipes, and I believe his preferred method is doing that in batches instead of single units here and there. Getting a group will help a lot, but sending him a pm is the first step.

Thanks! Have the j pipes evolved/improved like the pcd's or hfpc's or have they been the same since the first batch?
If my memory is correct, I haven't seen any differences in the appearance or descriptions.. In other words if it ain't broke, don't fix it?
