Default test pipe gains

I got stock cats with 124k on them.. and some kind of aftermarket catback..


would deleting my cat yield me a decent gain?

I lost to a skittle by a car today... that sucked..


I want something cheap and quick so I can get a re-run with a better result

Anything freeing up exhaust restrictions will yeild a gain in HP on a turbo car. Are you running a DP? If not Id suggest getting one that just deletes the cat.

I don't know if a test pipe alone is a car length gain. 125k mile stock cat, though. Hmm.

get a downpipe, and just run it open, lol, its loud, but you'll learn to love it

you need to work on getting a downpipe, do that and a test pipe into your cat back and you'll notice a huge difference in the car

Blake, hes got a cat back, bov, basically very minor bolt-ons

Bronson, i got some stuff off my GS-T that im upgrading so let me know if you want any of it, hit me up on AIM

Yeah a good down pipe about 3" all the way back will give you a nice kick in the (_Y_).

The first time I ran my 3" opean down pipe it was a rush, but I could not stand the sound. Good luck!!!
