Normally, Mustangs will have 4 Cats. Two before and two after the bend from the headers. It adds HP/Torque and sound because there isnt anything there as a baffle (no cat material), making it a free flowing exhaust, open pipe if you will.

Ive seen pictures of the stock midpipe with six cats. I remember reading somewhere that those cars were bound for California. Not sure if any other states required that.
