After making a list of tasteful mods and listening to what a lot of you had to say, I went ahead and had the rear cats removed.

I friend of mine does exhaust work out of his house and i had him do it. He charged me 80$ for the work and i thought that was more then fair.

Mods List

-AEM drop in filter
-Moes Tune
-3.73 gears in the rear + rearend rebuild
-New Compressor install -Done
-Rear Cat Delete - Done
-Replace Drivers and passenger window regulators
-New Head unit
-New Speakers
-LED upgrade's -Done

I will keep everyone posted and i will post pictures of all the work completed once i get a chance. Would anyone like a high quality video of what the car sounds like with no rear cats?

Nice! And go 410's or nothing at all just my opinion. Unless your changing the gears yourself it's not worth the labor.

good point.
I have a car with 3.27 get's same fuel milage as blower car with 4.10, so their is no reason NOT to enjoy the 4.10 gearing.
Most here will agree...

I consistently break the rear wheels with the trilogy and 3:55's. If your supercharging I personally see no need to throw more coin in the rear end. Just my .02

that's just the thing - without seeing boost in his mod wish list, 4.10 worthwhile, agreed.
With boost, not needed - but sure feels nice out of the gate ....good point!

And to think I started with an awesome Trilogy and was quickly ready to majorly upgrade. It's ADDICTING! Don't do it!

As for 4.10's and boosted.. YES. Because drifting at any speed is FUN.

All the credit card debt and selling my other toy was worth it, no regrets.
Marauders should have been supercharged when new.
