I had that same muffler with cat bypass pipes on my 04 S. It was too much for me. As in it gave me a headache after 10 minutes. I took the muffler off the same day I put it on and put the stock one back on. This is coming from someone in their early 20s! The stock muffler with bypass pipes is a little quieter than what I would ideally want but I think it is a good compromise. Not to mention I think the stock tips look and fit a lot nicer.

Lots of people on here have the combo and like it, however. It just depends on what your preferences and expectations are. You've been warned

front cats

Where do the Oxygen sensors go after "cats" are removed?

I have the same concern, but there's only one way to find out. At the moment it's marginally louder than the stock muffler. Once it sounds like my 911 with SSIs and a Dansk sport, then I'll be happy.
