I honestly don't know Jonathan. Catylitic y-pipes are quite a bit more expensive than catless y-pipes though. Last I heard, QTP didn't even have a Y w/cats(although that was a while ago).

Are you only stuck on the QTP's? They are very good headers, but for instance JetHot has a GP right now for COATED longtubes that are $511 shipped to your door(awesome price). You could then purchase some good Carsound highflow cats(94009) for $65 each and have them welded into a 2.5 or 3" custom Y-pipe that you would have to have made. I called FLP down in Naperville and they said they'd make a quality 3" custom Y w/cats welded in for $350 straight-up. So add up the total cost which = $1,000 flat for some good LT's, Carsound cats, and a 3" custom Y-pipe. Very good price IMO for that set-up compared to the other LT's that come with cats which are like $200-$300 more on average. But again, I don't know much about the QTP's or their pricing. Either way, the extra money spent for cats will be worth it.

You can still go without cats if you want to save some $$$, but you'll probably hate the sound. And you'll have to deal with emissions too.

I try to buy the best possible products. Before I buy expensive items, I do extensive research. I found from my research QTP LT Headers to be the best choice.

I already put in my order for QTP Equal Length LT Headers+Off-Road Y and install kit...
