... here is how you can tell... on a cold morning start your car in the garage and let it sit there with the garage door half down, if you start smelling sulphates and phosphate and chemicals that aren't normal then they are gutted... cats eliminate harmful chemicals, some which have an odor that you can smell

No cats with a stock setup...yeah it sounds like crap. However, I would recommend high flow cats over a catless setup. No legal issues and it still sounds good.
