What do you guys know about the "Racing Straight Pipe" thats on ebay?

It says its a replacement for the cat. Does it do anything? Can you have this and a y-pipe? Will it pass emisions?

yeah, you can have it with the y-pipe. it just frees up exhaust flow some more. no, you won't pass emissions.

You can get one made for $20. Dont even bother with that ad, its a scam.

It just cuts out the cat and that little hole is where the emission sensor goes. I have a 98 and with a straight pipe in place of my cat. If you do install one, the check engine light may permanently be on (not in my case). And it makes your exhaust a little louder, a more hollow tone.
You obviously wont pass emissions, but thats why its a direct replacement for the cat. When the time comes, just bolt the cat back in place and you're set.

you will most likely have to do it yourself too because most shops wont install it.
