I was unaware that the 5" caused longer spool up time, I guess when the time comes I will be going 4".

e99, cali, and manual trucks all came equippped with cats from the factory. Anything else did not as far as I'm aware.

Also you can just swap valve covers with a newer engine tell the smog boy that you put in a newer, non-cat equipped engine. No laws against putting a newer version of the same engine into a truck as far as I know.

I have a 5" and would not do it again. I would get the 4 in.
