I just bought the SOLO high flow cats. After the research I did, it was between JBA and SOLO. I do not want a CEL and SOLO seems the best quality. Yes they are more expensive. SOLO is also better if you own the L99.

If my neighbors happen to be on this forum, I am going to tell you shut up and quit complaining about my exhaust. To me, it is music made by a controlled explosion in some American steel.

I highly recommend headers/high flow cats with the MBRP.

I recently put on ARH 1 7/8 Long tube's (short system, not to be mistaken as shorties), with High Flow Cats. They matched right up to my MBRP, and it sounds freakin sexy.

My dealer mentioned i would only have warranty probs if I got the tune (which of course i have).

But its worth it.

if your car is basically stock,,cai maybe,, high flo cats without a tune will give you more than lt,s. period. but a tune may be what you want with the cats. resonator delete,,with x-pipe. hi flos, and cai. tough to beat. if you are going with more mods,,,lt,s are help. cats are the most restrictive part of the exhaust. good luck.

So, how much are the Solo cats? Is it just a unbolt stock & bolt on Solo's?
Looking for a better sound on my L99.

This is a unbolt stock carefully cause of the 4 o2 sensors, bolt on solos using the same sensors and it increases a lot the sound.
It gave my Flowmaster more agressiveness, it already had deep tone, but solos really helped.
If your l99 is all stock, there are plenty of videos on youtube of stock exhaust with solo cats!

Solo, if you are tuned in, how about another "group buy"?

Not true, had JBA's and now longtubes with no tune. LT's hands down for increase in power/sound/throttle response. I didn't really like the tone of the JBA's and the wife really wasn't game either.
