I agree with you. If I were him I would change the fluid. That "lifetime" fluid doesn't really last a "lifetime".

I wouldn't change the cats. They don't do that much for your horse power (5hp maybe 10hp). But, if you do want to keep your exhaust original but unique, do what I did. I removed the center resonator...
