    question bout exhaust

    is there much performance gains to be had on an 02 ws6 by getting rid of the cats and going to a full dual exhaust?

    If your going to put duals on it, you should have headers for the best power gain. Deleting cats really doesn't help power that much.

    As said above just removing cats is not going to be a real big difference. Can't really hurt though

    You get yourself some nice quality headers with a good flange like SLP or QTP or Kooks and you won't have any leaking issues.

    In the past I have gone with the cheap $300 - $450 and had those same issues. I slapped some SLP LT's on last year torqued them to spec and have had no problems AT ALL!

    Don't go with SLP longtubes, whatever you do. They have the worse ground clearance out of any of them.
