Chevrolet 350 Vortec Straight Pipe With Cats vs. Straight Pipe Without Cats

[@joeypitch576]

I remember when I was about 5, my dad was changing his exhaust out for a flowmasters one and he started it while it was straight piped...let’s just say it scared the shit out of me 😂

[@castletrash7770]

Solid video man! I think both sound good and I love the sound of the 350 Vortec. At the end of the day, I would probably choose the cat back set up just to reduce drone. But, it's all a matter of how much drone you can deal with as well as if you want to be heard a mile or two down the road lol

TheSteelBlinds I think the Vortec sounds better with cats but my 95 f150 has a 351 with a shorty glass pack dumped, and both cats. It sounded stupid quiet even when I revved on it. I was so disappointed. Wish I had pulled the cats.

[@EJtcbGRAY]

I couldn't agree more with this video. I've had both 'cat back' straights, and catless straights (both on channel), and I feel pretty much the same. I ran with the cats for years, and the catless straights lasted a month or so. It's just too much. I constantly had a headache, and everytime I left a stop sign or red light people looked at me bad. I even scared an old lady on the phone one day so bad, she forgot to take off when the light changed, and just stared at me. Granted, she shouldn't have been on the phone anyway lol. Plus the constant fear of being the loudest thing in the county, and knowing you were probably gonna get pulled over any second. I mean, don't get me wrong... IT'S FUN...but not worth it, especially if it's your daily driver. I recently switched to thrush welded mufflers still without cats, and it's so much better. I actually can drive the truck and feel somewhat normal again, but WOT if I want the straight pipe sound. Also adding the mufflers made the truck feel like it had power again, though the cat removal didn't really effect my truck much. Great video man! I'm 100% with you. *Fun, but too much* That's a nice obs Silvy you have btw!

[@TysonClassics]

less sound can make any vehicle seem more powerful! go from a straight pipe truck to stock, its literally an ear illusion lol. If I was to recommend to anyone, it would be putting on long tube headers, no cats, 2.5'' pipe to some nice sounding mufflers, and then any tips of your choice

my mileage stayed the same when I cut my cats and my engine light has been on regarding the 02 sensors for 2 years no problems

Kyle Van Zee cutting the cats off does nothing to your engine. All it does is throw a code and that doesn’t matter.

[@nrgyzr2012]

Would someone please enlighten me here? How are you running dual straights, without catalytic converters? How do you manage to bypass the O2 sensors and everything still runs? I have a 98 Z71 Sierra I am wanting to do this too. But, I have 2 catalytic converters of course. One on each side. And each Cat has two 02 sensors. 1 before & 1 after the Cat. How do you bypass those & still have a functioning motor?? Thanks!!

I cut the cats and welded them back to the pipe added, I have a check engine light but as far as fuel and power goes its the same.

How do i take off the service engine light? Do i need to get a tune? Bc i deleted my cats

[@CouchDog]

you can buy a Spark Plug Non-Fouler from autozone or other places for like 5 bucks. Basically you just drill 1 and then screw them both together, then you attach that to the o2 sensor and you're done. It'll take like 2 minutes to install it in

[@TysonClassics]

probably need a special tune

[@wyattweeks9048]

When you deleted your cats did you have to tune your truck to make it not throw a engine light or did the truck not care? My cats are shot on my 97 suburban and am going to delete them but just wondering if I need to get it turned. Thanks!

[@AdmiralRustyShackleford]

+93 k1500 No you don't, straight pipes sound awful. Most people who aren't inbred hate them after they run them for a few days. I had no cat and a cheap glasspack on my truck temporarily, and I couldn't get rid of it fast enough. It has a Magnaflow now and it sounds infinitely better. Do yourself and everyone around you a favor and use a decent muffler, not straight pipes or cheap glasspacks, because then it'll sound cheap.

[@Anythingwithamotor17]

okay I'm going to get long tube headers this summer and probably make some 2.5 inch true duals with 8 inch glass packs

[@AdmiralRustyShackleford]

***** That's still going to rasp and sound pretty bad once those glasspacks burn out after a month. I'd run a set of Thrush Welded, or if you're set of the glasspack sound, get the long case Dynomax Bullets, those last a lot longer than a regular glasspack, especially without cats. Lastly, have an H-pipe installed, it'll make the sound deeper and it gives you more torque.

[@Anythingwithamotor17]

well i don't really want an h pipe but ill get some thrush welds

[@AdmiralRustyShackleford]

***** Trust me, if you go with duals without an H-pipe, you'll lose a lot of low end torque, it'll be a dog off the line. You can do it if you want, but I don't think it's worth it for the sound you want.

[@Isleepin516]

Wish someone could do a video like this but for a tbi

[@Gkitchens1]

I’ve got a 96 z71 pipe is cut at the back of the cab. It’s a y pipe to the single cat and 4 inch pipe from the cat back. Anyway I’m assuming the cat is still intact cuz no codes (I just bought it from my dad who bought it from some kid) but the original Vortec 305 has been replaced with an 880 4 bolt main 350. That said your truck sounds absolutely obnoxious on video without compared to what mine sounds like with cats. In fact I had a 305 put in my nova which just had a one foot pipe out of each manifold that was pretty quiet unless I floored it. I assume it’s either your audio quality or the length of pipe on yours. I normally don’t like straight pipes on a 350 but mine seems to be just the right mix of quiet at idle with loud under load, I want to keep it straight pipe, but gotta have a muffler around here or get a ticket. Looking to find a “muffler” with no filler. Thought about finding an old mostly round cat that’s been punched and have it welded in as a “muffler” anyway thanks for the video!

[@adamchevy4283]

I honestly think from my experience with the overall sound the vortec is louder yes. But however the Tbi is much louder and harder to keep quiet in town speeds and up to 30 mph at 1000 to 2000 rpm there drone is crazy and much harder to keep quiet when u want to keep it quiet compared to the vortec. But the vortec is louder overall full sound when on it all the way like a full rev off and higher rpms 2500 way up through 4000 rpm. So there both Loud in different ways I have a vortec and Tbi fully Straight piped and that’s how I know lol. They both have the exact same pipe size literrlly only difference is the vortec has headers and Tbi has manifolds I know people say manifolds are louder for more cruising around pop and it would be believeable headers would rev up louder. But I don’t feel even if they had both manifolds it would change the low speed and high speed sound that much cause I mean by Tbi is way louder crusinifn around but my vortec is way louder reving up so it’s quite a difference both ways lol

Not to make an argument it’s ok to have an opinion but in my the bigger pipe is only just deeper and It’s quieter. Smaller you go the louder and more obnoxious. Trust me I’ve had both 2.5 inch on a 350 and 2 inch. The smaller it got noticeably louder and crackles more.

[@thorcole2089]

Ok thats why. Flowmasters have a pretty stout sound. When I took my factory muffler off I had a old 40 series for it but that was louder than no muffler so thats why you got the same or less noise when you cut it off. You can put a turn down on it to get more rumble or run the full pipes and it will get more raspy.

Any super loud exhaust is not it if you want to drive daily to work and run errands. My little Chevy Cruze is so loud it makes me feel sick and tired after driving it for a bit and I don’t feel like getting back in don’t know if it’s the exhaust fumes or the sound but it’s way to much to use a a to b vehicle. I’m glad I only went with a flowmaster 40 on my suburban and left the cats alone ir have a very nice rumble is plenty loud.

those tight chambers left open.. one would need a bigger overlap cam to enjoy the open pipes. Same for the L30(305 metric). The last of SBC mentality.. hate to see ya kill it. I have killed several and regret it. 200cpi cat, and flowmasters. Injection computer doesn't get jostled that way. Ignore the low HP comments, those are culted honda drivers. My "little" L30 is 280hp to the ground.

I have a '97 Tahoe, with true duals, no cats, with a Magnaflow 2 in 2 out 2 1/2 , with the tailpipes 45'd out the back. Much less cackle, more of a deep tone! And it's not a Flowmaster! Lol

did adding a muffler bring back your mpg you lost?

[@TysonClassics]

its hard to say, once something is quieter and makes less noise when you floor it, it does seem more powerful so it could be an ear illusion as I've never lost mpg and it has enough power
