High Flow Cat vs. No Cat

I live in michigan so there are no emissions laws. I currently have a flowmaster 60 series cat-back. I love the tone it puts out except I really wish it had a bit more depth to it without adding a super raspy tone.

My question is, should I look into a high-flow cat (suggestions are welcome, sound clips would be sweet) or should I cut the thing off all together

I'm after performance gains and (and eventually I plan on adding a set of headers).

feedback is sweet

thanks

If you dont have emissions, cut the cat off no reason for it without emissions.

Personally, I think f-bodys with no cat and ANY sort of catback sound like trash (at least the ones I've heard).

If headers are involved, different story.

Would you happen to have any sound clips of a catless flowmaster setup? or know where I could find one

save up for headers..... dont do anthing to ur exhaust until u aquire a nice set of longtubes...then go with longtubes, x-pipe, no cats dumped...sounds amazing and has the best hp gain.... but make sure u use 2.5inch piping i used 3inch and i have 0 bacpressure
