Exhaust Vid! Longtubes and X pipe with NPP M2W
I finally have the raw beast back that I missed from my last Vette!! I ordered LG Street Series longtubes and X pipe (no cats) from JWMotoring (super quick shipping btw!!) and had them installed Wednesday! I couldn't be happier with the outcome!! With the NPP exhaust and M2W it's the perfect setup! Insanely loud raw beastiness when open and a little louder than stock when closed lol.... I'm going to get it dyno tuned next week hopefully so I'll post up the numbers then.
This is just a quick clip as I didn't want to **** off my neighbors too much lol. I'll make a better vid soon and some driving too. The video doesn't do it justice btw

Or you could have left the cats intact and been compliant with Federal Law and environmentally conscious about future generations quality of air.
The very few ponies gained without cats are not worth adding to the burden of those with respiratory challenges.
I'm certain those with breathing issues are delighted you got a raw beast that pisses off your neighbors at the expense of others health. You could reconsider ? ? ? ?

Thanks! I love it!!
I chose no cats for personal preference, mostly for sound. There's slightly more power without cats but it is also louder and gives a better (raw) sound. There are numerous POS vehicles on the road that are much worse than my car and in my state if your car is '95 or older you don't even have an emissions inspection. Having said that I see cars on a daily basis that smoke, leak, pollute worse than my car. In addition to these there are numerous transport/transfer trucks, trains, industries, oil spills, landfills, etc that all contribute to pollution that I guarantee are worse than my car. People that smoke cigarettes annoy me but that's their choice and I don't really care. Do I care that they affect my breathing? Nope. Everyone pollutes in some way or fashion. In the grand scheme of things my car without cats really doesn't make a difference.

Everything you say about other offending vehicles is true - I won't begin to debate any of it. But someone has to take a stand and choose to make a difference. Those who can afford the luxury of Corvette ownership and the further luxury to mod them, may be a influential group to begin with. I'm just saying you have a choice to make a personal small difference with your car and a bigger opportunity to shape opinion by modding legally and promoting clean air responsibility.

I would not even begin to disagree with your points about other offending vehicles and countries. You are mostly correct. But I don't think it's wrong to suggest that Corvette owners could make a small yet impactful difference.
Everyone is free to do what they will with their cars - I have not stated otherwise. I am only suggesting consideration for modding one's car legally and responsibly, nothing more.
FYI: According to Title II of the EPA Clean Air Act (Enacted Jan 1 1988)
. . . your car must have a gas conversion device of some manner. If not, both you and the installer are punishable of a Federal Offense by Section 205 (a). The operator's fine can be no more than $2,500 and the installation agency no more than $25,000.

Also did you get a SES light without your 02 sensors that monitor the condition of the cats?

I just installed the LG Streets on my car today. I have not decided to use the hi-flow cats or the straight pipes. I was told that you get a bad smell if you don't use the cats. Did you experience that?
Also did you get a SES light without your 02 sensors that monitor the condition of the cats?

Me personally I hated the smell without cats. I don't believe it bothers him as I believe this is his second catless set.

That sounds pretty mean, I like it and I was thinking of doing the same except with the Pro Series and off-road x-pipe and keeping the npp exhaust. Thanks for the video.
