I started an identical thread, wanted to know who has it. Only ff'er I know with it is the guy who tested it for WeaponR. He talked about it in the thread when WeaponR was developing it. I REALLY want it, just pretty expensive, especially without multiple opinions.

I am interested in the down pipe, keeping my main cat in place (not using that second flex pipe piece)

I'm in search of something like that, only question I have for it is if one remove all the cats, would we need to use O2 eliminaters or will the stock ECU work on both the lambda sensors without the cats.

This is certainly going to through a 'catalyst efficency below threshold' OBD code. I know some ways around it though.

It looks good, but I'm wondering where the primary O2 sensor is. Maybe I'm just not seeing it.
