Do you know part number of GESI cats you have?
I found part number 7525, OBD2 2.5" in/out, 4" body. Hope this is right..

Most don't but it's also dependent on your state and emissions inspections.

Still smells though but I don’t mind it lol.
Unfortunately anything catless you'll smell more of the exhaust fumes. But it's not the worst thing in the world.

To the OP, looking forward to seeing the car all wrapped up after the install! I'm sure you're going to love the gains, along with the responsiveness of the car! It's defiantly worth the wait that is for sure. But you're also getting the best of the best!

416 hp vs. 300 hp. MHD stage 2 probably puts my car at 340-350 hp max. I think you will beat me now especially on the top end. Are we still meeting up at FA Toyota tomorrow?

I am ready to go stage 2+ on the F10. I'd like to see how badly I lose from you to decide whether I need a PS2 turbo upgrade or not.

Any thoughts? ��
