Off road pipe question

I want the off road pipe sound but not all the time. I can't being myself to buy the qtp electric cutoffs (seeing that they're $600...). My question is how hard would it be to change back and forth between my stock h pipe and an off road pipe? Can it be done multiple times? What do you guys think?

Get the bassani with removable cats, take them off when you want or leave them on.

Yes, because your will get a cel. If you have a pre 2004 you can get MIL Eliminators, if you have 2005+ you will need a tune.

I think slp may have a setup where the cats are interchangeable with straight pipe.

And I thought you could run MIL eliminates with the S197 as well.

They dont, you are most likely talking about these http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-o2...harnesses.html
wich are used to extend the 02 sensors if you have a mid pipe with different locations for them, or long tube headers.

I personally just installed JBA LT Headers and JBA Off road pipes, i use to have SLP loud mouths on my 01 Bullitt and that was loud ALL the time, i have to say with the stock cat backs on AKA mufflers its not to loud , loud enought for people to look but not back just driving normal, it gets loud at WOT tho, but its really not that hard to change back in forth but the O2 Sensors for the front are kind of a pain in the *** to get to.

You have to heat up the o2 bungs to screw them on.., or to make it easier in general.. had to do that on mine.
