Can you hear it like an intake???? You're ganna hear a difference through your exhaust system. Headers are sealed and not meant to be heard like an open filtered intake.

There's going to be a big performance difference such as pick-up. Im not sure if it'll help in low or top end, though. For bigger increase, get straight pipes with no CAT. You'll be movin!

You just don't have clue do you. Why not just throw him a magic 8 Ball and tell him to get his answer from that.

If you delete the catalytic converter(CAT), and they test you for emissions, you will fail. Adding a Megan RH to your car will most likely make your exhaust tone deeper and raspier, assuming you have a catback on there now.

dude don't delete you cat besides the envirnmental impacts there are other things to consider

due to the J30a extremely small intake valve size combined with the lack of stage 2 of a 3 stage vtec system you will definately loose low end torque. (you got a PM)

best bet for exhaust is headers and axle back if you are staying NA

also missing CAT will throw a CEL
