Curious as to what kind of bulb/LED combos y'all are using. I've been using some Lucenta 6k HID bulbs but they don't match my 6k VLED switchbacks very well.

I've thought about those but the 6K LEDs have a slight purple tint to them that makes my 6k HID's color look 'off'

Question what do you think of J Pipe - I really dont want to change the cabin volume. Really thinking about adding with Cat still there, I live in hippy state and there is rumors about add car inspections...or rattling from the Jpipe.

I honestly didn't notice much of a change in cabin volume when I added the j-pipe, even with the catless one. I think most of the change is in the exhaust tone. I noticed a little extra pep in the car when I installed mine.

I heard problems with odd rattling with J pipe, any issues? Still use the stock plugs?
I am going with the same brand as you have. Going to keep the 3rd Cat for now.

I had rattling problems at first because I didn't tighten get the flange bolts quite tight enough but I haven't had any problems since then. If you're gonna buy a 3rd cat you might want to look at high flows. I'm not really sure of the cell count of the 3rd cat but if it's >200 you may get a little power with a high flow.
