If i cut out my factory cats and straight pipe it, and get o2 sensors, would that cause any harm? I have slp "loudmouth" mufflers.

You already have O2 sensors...
Just buy a $100 O/R H or X (2.5") and some MILs and be done with it...

No need for O2 sensors with straight pipes. Also, I wouldn't straight pipe it. You have a possiblity of having unequal backpressure and possibly warping a valve. You will need some sort or x/h-pipe in order to equalize the pressures between the two sides.

Just get a o/r prochamber. Your ears would be a bit more safe than. The environment would be abit more hurt, but than think about the factories already pushing smokes stacks into the air. I have a catted H now, but it sucks with my flows.
