  • Cat gains?

    I've got the headers and cat-back...
    What I'm wondering is if I will acctually see any noticeable gains putting a 3inch cat and s-pipe?
    Is it worth the trouble....well let me rephrase that...
    I'm gonna do it either way [img]tongue.gif[/img] but will I have anything to speak of more than just being able to say I've totally swapped the exhaust out?

    nah ditch the cat-back.. get a highflow cat and call that your exhaust =)

        Only reason I don't have a catback/muffler is I haven't decided what I want... waiting for TSP to get their rumbler catback figured out.

          I think I remember seeing that you pulled the 201 with the cut-out right?
          Did you do any pulls with it closed?

              I'm gonna dyno it pretty soon...I'd be pleased if I hit 195.
              Whenever I hit the 200 mark I'll be quite pleased with my little car :cool:

                  Well I figure if I aim for practical #'s its a lot harder to be let down.
                  People go dyno expecting like 210 and get 190...heh...those folk get pretty bummed out

                    it seems the first dyno is the worse.. by about the third or fourth I was pulling good numbers.

                      Really?
                      Why do you think that was?
                      I've never heard that before.

                        no car runs good if it hasn't been warmed up at all.. its just the way it is. We didn't run them back to back we gave it about 5-15 min to cool down between runs but they got better the more we did.

                          Huh...I guess that makes sense.
