Why? What are you expecting to gain. Noise? Horsepower? Fuel economy?

I have a 2004 X V10. My Cat is HUGE! I don't think it is holding up the flow any.

I wouldn't mess with the expensive cat, just get a big straight through muffler. Don't they check for smog where you live?

I recently cut out my muffler expecting to get a better looking tail pipe and maybe get a better sound. I got both by doing this, Pics bellow.

That must be a V8. V10s don't have that small muffler.
