If deleting the cats I would look into a more custom tune. The hypertec is prob tuned with cats in mind. A self tuning software like efilive or having it dyno tuned by a shop would be my recomendation. I have kooks with no cats and supprisingly enough when I took her on a cruise around town on just open headers(I know I'm juvinile lol) I didn't throw a cel on the stock tune.I drove it on open headers then started it and drove it into and outa my shop with headers, spintech exhaust and no cats. Still no CEL. Supprised the hell outa me. I will check tonight if it has any actual stored codes.

Edit: I want to clarify. I don't thing running around on a stock tune and headers especially with no cats is a good idea. It will code eventually I'm sure. Just saying you *may* be able to get by for a short trip with no code. I'd also check with your dealer and see what they say about cats. They may look the other way with 4:29:56 PM's but not cattless ones.
