so i just go to them and ask them to put one on?? or doi have to find one and take it to them. An once that is on can i put on a new muffler

Go and ask them if they can take the cat off, if they say yes, then ask them if they could just empty the one you have or put one that is gutted out(if you want yours to look legal) Then they could put a new muffler but you can just take the stock one off and put a 3" chrome tip wich i think would make it better.

So these straight pipe systems, how much HP gain are you talking about? Is it a noticable difference?

You will get the most gains from a new downpipe (or headers), and gutting the catalytic converter (illegal) than you will from a cat back exhaust.

Ok so for best overall HP gains and performance, My best bet is to get long headers, a test pipe to replace the cat, straight pipe all the way back to a 3" tip? Or should I use a muffler at the end. I don't care about emissions.

test pipes are illegal, federal spec cars require 1 cat converter, and cali spec requires 3. A test pipe is a straight pipe put in place of your cat converters. Not all states do emission checks, so if yours dont, you will be safe with a test pipe.

you gotta take it off the car, and take out the insides of the cat and put it back on. Easier/faster to just buy a testpipe from www.3sx.com and use that instead. Cats are messy and shit.
