i was talking about stock 335 exhaust do i just delete secondary cats and leave mufflers as it is http://img46.imageshack.us/f/oem20exhaust.jpg/
For the most hp, I would buy a new exhaust and both are changed/removed. You will still gain a couple whp with the cat deletion on the stock exhaust. The stock mufflers are a little more restrictive than aftermarket mufflers(shape/design/size). You will have to cut and weld the mid pipe into the stock one is why I didnt go this route. AND because they are like 2-2.5 inches wide as opposed to a wider 3inch. Sounds if FAR different. Mine is a lot louder than stock.

Stock exhaust is 60 mm = 2.362 inches. 2.5 inch stainless tubing slips over the stock exhaust piping though it takes some force to do so.
