    so mine is going bad, its a stock, now that i have the exhaust put on, i really like the low rumble and not the fart can noises. I was wondering, would gettin an aftermarket cat conv going to make it louder? some were suggesting cat delete but i know that would be too much

    I was going to start up a thread on this too because I too have a very badly clogged up cat. Its throwing the CEL and everything. So i also was wondering if going with an oem replacement or aftermarket would make it raspier and sound like crap? Because like 93geo mine also isnt too loud or too quiet and it sounds low and throaty.
