How would you clamp it? I've been trying to figure it out, and there's really not much room where the pipes can overlap to securely clamp it. If you're successful, pictures would be great.

We're in the same boat, the exhaust man told me 200 bucks to get it done at his shop. I said screw that and figured i could clamp some pipe in for 30 bucks or so...not that simple though. haha

Do NOT cut the cats. It'll fry the o2 censors, throw codes, and if you don't replace the pipe, the lack of backpressure will **** up your engine.

So I got a question. I have a single in duel out super 44 muffler on with the pipes that would normally come out to the end of the bed cut off. I cut them off cuz it was way quiet the shop screwed me... So if I just cut the muffler off and leave the cats on will I do serious damage. I've heard yes and no I guess I don't see how adding a straight pipe all the way back would make a difference. Any advice would be awesome

I cut my muffler off and haven't put anything in place of it. It won't hurt but it will be louder but with the cats still on there will be no damage
