That kit doesn't come with a muffler. Not sure in VA, but if you have to have cats, usually a muffler is also required. Not to mention it would prolly drone and be too loud for a DD

My buddy bought one about a month ago, it sounds actually pretty good! If you notice near the Y-pipe on the system, it has a short run of tubing that is flared, that is to either run it like that straight pipe, or you can take that peice out and replace it with a muffler.

Hes running a cat and a cherry bomb extreme on it but its still plenty loud, great quality metal/bends/and perfect fit-up.

ONE NOTE THOUGH:
It comes with clamps, but to save you from headache in the long run, do yourself a favor and weld it instead.

Yes, they make the kits as a "direct bolt-up". My buddy that has this exhaust has a receiver and his spare still and its no problem at all
