So in short.... never install PCDs unless you have to kiddos.

FIVE???!!! Time for a rant:
If the fuggin' EPA would concentrate on getting the cars that go down the road looking like they're spraying of mosquito's off the road we might not have a problem.
I think there once was a time for Cats... back in the days of carburetors changes in atmospheric conditions and altitude meant that if someone took the time to tune their carb to the perfect 13:1 Air/fuel ratio that it wouldn't be tuned right a few hours later. Carbs always run either rich or lean. However, about the same time we started putting cats on cars we also started putting on electronically controlled fuel injection, that adjusted for the optimum fuel/air about 7 times every second. Now all cats do is restrict air flow and rob horsepower, which in turn makes the engine use more gas to make up the difference.

HFPCs are the only way to roll. Unless you're boosted I have never seen a reason to install PCDs.
J do you not have the most ideal exhaust possible? Lol. HFPC, v3 j, true dual?!? Why on earth would you want to change it up?

Beautiful baby and dog, J.
I can can see while cul0 wants to steal your pup. She looks like she'd be extremely loyal and her colouring is awesome.
I can also understand why he doesn't want to steal Z. He's already got two of his own

Yeah, I think we both knew that. And I can't be the one to break up that happy family. So I'll probably just head home and call off this dognapping caper.

I'm at about 137k miles, still on the OG cats. Next summer ill probably grab the HFPC. The smell, rasp and tarnishing of the exhaust tips with the PCDs is just too much BS for me for another 3 hp lol

*sigh* I feel it's my obligation to now ask if they are washing it with soap and water or just using QD. I really don't want to do this, but at this point I've committed myself to the shtick. :soory:
