Good news and bad news guys. Bad news is that you are probably expecting the vid clip and I haven't made it yet. The reason I didn't make it yet is that I spent a little time working on the good news. The good news is that with a set of non-foulers and some steel wool I was able to get rid of the P0157 code. Whover came up with the non-fouler trick is a genius.

Good deal man, I pickd some up for mine before the install just incase but the stock cats seem to work perfectly as I have not had a CEL since they were put back on (probably just jinxed myself now)

Alright, I finally was able to get out and make a short vid of the truck with the new exhaust. Unfortunately it is raining out so I couldn't give it the full gas. But this should give you an idea of what it sounds like with the new headers, cats and y-pipe. If I get better weather this week I will get you a WOT video so you can see how loud it really is.
The vid is a couple 2000 rpm revs, a short light throttle drive off (about 2000 rpm) and then a drive by at speed.

Oh, I forgot to add that I tried the dbMeter Pro app on my phone while I was making this vid. At idle it is about 85 - 90 db and during the driveby at 2000 rpm it maxed it out at 110 db. I am sure that during WOT it will max out the meter at 120 db. Not sure how accurate it really is but I figured I would give it a try.
