ORP cons: noise*, smell, and pollution (legality)
ORP pros: unrestricted flow, noise*
*some people like the sound, some don't... I personally find it too raspy at some RPM ranges. At other ranges, my car has a very sexy growl. I run the SVT header, ORP, SVT flex, 2.5" mandrel-bent stainless from there back with a 14" Magnaflow resonator and Borla muffler. I get compliments from friends when I'm growling around quietly, and when letting it scream, but complaints when cruising on the highway.

^^ I agree with all those pros and cons
the only thing I hate are the raspy cold starts lol
I have SVT header, Orp, SVT flex, 2.5 exhaust with a turbo muffler no resonator..and it def does get raspy at high rpm but I get alot of people that love it and alot of people that hate it...

I'm looking into welding a hi-flow cat into my ORP.

I haven't bought that yet because I need to get under my car to measure the ORP... 11" is pretty long... but I think it'll fit. Should definitely tone down the rasp... not to mention the pollution and smell. Designed for engines up to 5.9L, so I'm guessing I won't have any flow problems

Here is the how-to on how to convert the ORP to HFC. I think it would be good if we could get a local welder to make some HFC and sell them on here. Since CFM doesnt have any in stock. I cant find any HFC anywhere!

I'm going to make one, maybe two, and possibly have a friend do most of the welding, since I'd make it ugly. I have access to a few different welders (my brother, my school's SAE Baja shop, etc).

I have an ORP, so it should be simple:
Plan is to bolt the ORP to some peices of metal, clamp or weld the metal together to hold it in place, then cut out a section from the ORP, weld the cat in, and unbolt from the 'template'.
