I know this has probably been discussed before, but is this worth getting? Are there any good or bad reviews about this pipe?

Its nothing but a simple pipe with welded flanges that replaces your CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
1. it's illegal
2. it will make your car louder
3. you will be giving off toxic fumes
4. you will fail inspection
5. your MIL will probably come on
6. the power you get from this mod can't be felt with your 'butt' dyno
there are more...but I think you get the point. =)

Yea Yea Yea...

Before I would spend the money on a high flow cat I would recomend the straight pipe. I had mine made at a muffler shop for ~$30 You can also put the cat back on for inspection, it take all of 20 minutes. MIL, some yes, some no. Louder... not mine. Toxic fumes... dont drive behind me
