    cat-back,

    exhaust system that is a replacement from after the catalyic converter.

    de-cat is to remove the cat, its a replacement part....

    all up and running now

    just had a custom flanged de-cat pipe made that has a 2&1/4" flange from the stock down pipe and on the back a 3" flange going onto the fujitsubo

    this cost me nothing, my dad machined the custom flanges for me and welded the pipe in the middle (3" stanless steal)

    only other issue was my back bumper had no cut in for the exhaust tip
    easily fixed with a hack saw blade and a file

    will try record some sound soon,

    sounds good thou
