Need Opinions
Alright fellas I need some opinions on cat deletes. Should I go with JBA cat deletes or the BBK's? JBA's are only 100 bucks more so price difference is nothing but just curious what some of you folks are running?

Gotcha! I currently have a stainless works factory connect catback. I'm just wanting to do cat deletes for now and maybe LT's down the road.

I am running kooks long tubes with their cat delete into the stock exhaust. I do have a set of electric cutouts right after the headers.

I'm looking for opinions on BBK or JBA though. Not looking to do headers yet. Just cat deletes

IDK which is better, running JBA's. Keep your old cats in the box in case you or the next owner needs them!

I didn't realize you did not have headers. One thing to remember is that you are probably going to get a CEL if you remove the cats.

Yes you are correct. I'm doing a 10% overdrive (lower) at the same time and then going to have my tuner finish her off.
