It's a 1997 Chevy Half-Ton Pickup, K1500 V8 with a 5.0L 305. I've already put on dual exhaust, and a VR series racing muffler. Although, it is somewhat loud, I want it louder hehe. I live in North Carolina, and I'm not sure if my state has the emission controls... Anyway, should I take it off or no? Not sure about any of the sensors. And if I should, How should I do it? Replace it with an aftermarket high flow cat, rod it out, or saw it off? Thanks for the advice.
