actually the fumes really dont get in the cab unless i keep the door open, even with the window down i dont smell them, probably because the turn down isnt straight down, it kinda is at a 45 degree angle and blows it all towards the back

I like that sound, but I think gutting the cat will make it sound worse, won't have a deep rumble like that. It'll sound like a ricer when you hit the gas so if it's bad just replace it with a cheaper aftermarket one.
