Hey guys, first time poster. Ive been a member of CL for about a year ( bought my car last year 08 is350) and love it!

Im currently running a Tanabe Axle back + Invidia Midpipe and a Joez intake. About a month ago My CEL + VSC light came on with code P0430 catalytic converter defficiency. I took it to my mechanic and he said 99% chance its the cats. I've read on here of people replacing there o2 sensors but long story short I've decided to replace my Cats. I was thinking about taking out my primary cats and running a catless setup with Tanabe + invidia but what I would like to know is if anybody has run this setup and if its raspy. Im really trying to avoid rasp and make it sound like a rice rocket.

thanks your feedback!

 

How does that setup sound

 

its sound awesome not to loud and not to quiet. It is loud in the high rpms. If your getting an axle back i highly recommend a midpipe. the exhaust I wanted was the joez exhaust since its a true dual but its around $1600. but I am happy with mine u get minimal drone. You might get a little bit of rasp in the lower rpms but not much. If I take my primary cats out im pretty sure its going to become raspy since my midpipe already took out my secondary cats.
