So having finally had my sills re-painted and wheels re-furbed last winter I'm looking at what this winter might hold. One thing I'd like to do is to replace the 4 OE cats found on an SRT with 2 high flows to reduce temps mainly. Roe Racing and PartsRack each have 2 different types, one with a flex pipe and one without, my inclination would be to stick with the flex pipe - any thoughts?

Yeah, its true this year has not been the 'year of driving the car', only 400 miles on the SRT so far.... Still, he's in great shape as a result!!

Thanks Dave, No welding here so thanks for the clamp advice!

I would imagine that a full Bellanger setup is designed from the start to not have a flex pipe whereas the OEM headers and silencers are. The Bellanger system just has to be lighter as well and therefore provide less stress on the system? Lightening has Corsa track silencers on him which are not the lightest so would probably need some support. As for performance, the high flow cat has got to help the flow and I can't see that the flex pipe will hurt much - its not like I have a setup where I'm looking for 110% performance! I just want to help the cabin temps, possibly get some extra noise and prevent any inner sill damage from the second cats.
