DON'T GUT IT!!!!!! get a new one i did that to mine and now i am running into problems with less power. when you gut the cat it causes the exhaust to try to go back to the motor because of the difference in diameter ( got to love you gene ). get a test pipe. DON'T GUT THE CAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just a little help on that one

This may sound really stupid, but I was told the srt's came stock without cats. It didn't sound right so I figured I'd ask.

they dont come with mufflers, but two inline resonators to help quiet everything down. They come with a big ass cat.

dont gut it, think of it this way ur goin from ========(=-=-=-=) to =======(_________)=========== now this may look good in theory, but u will lose power cuz the exhaust will expand in the empty cat, but then to be compacted back into the rest of the exhaust... bad bad... for ya,
