Wait until the 2nd or 3rd date or she might slap you

Throw on the slip ons and you're good to go.

I put the slip-ons on my limited when I got home with it Saturday, It runs so much better I'm thinking about not doing the air cleaner and dresser duals I have in the garage.

Cats would be a tough removal, and I don't know what the sound would be like. But Slip-ons alone is do-able.I actually like my Pythons sound with the cats in.
