Shortening Exhaust (Off Road Use Only)
Okay I know there has been quite a bit of exhaust questions going on, This one has nothing to do with "replacing" or "removing" the Cat I am just wondering what options there are for (Off Road Use)
W
hat is the shortest Cat out there in the 2 1/2" feild. The smallest I have seen was a 13" on summit (so far)
Im looking at making the exhaust as short as possible for a future rear Triangulated 4 link. I know the stock location of the exhaust system is in the way.
Im pretty sure this fallows the rules and shouldn't be closed. I am looking for a (Off Road Use Only) replacement for the cat as I want to keep the cat to help with Back Pressure, lower the noise, and keep wheeling a little more green.
Any help would be appreciated.

Please don't tell me to remove the cat, or any of that type of response, as that is not what I am looking for, I am simply looking for the shortest one I can find.

Get a 1chamber muffler they are like 10 inch long buy a cat that is a bit lagrger I.d. An cut the spipe back to the rcase bracket an slide cat on pipe an weld it up that should free up like 5 more inch then do same wit muffler slide it on to cat an weld it right to it. That how mine is minus one chamber muffler. Then just slap a nice trun down one muffler.

I removed mine and am just running an older Flowmaster muffler whcih seems to be working a whole lot better. The engine has better throttle response and is not a bit loud. If you are wanting to retain a convertor, I measured mine and it could be trimmed down to 12 inches pretty easy, it is also 2 1/2 inch.
