Lose the cat?

Jrew · 10-01-2007, 04:12 AM

Here in FL if your car is older than 11 yrs you are not required to have a cat on under the beast. That being said what kind of gains/loses will i get from losing the cat? if i go straight with a hks drager system what am i looking at as far as performance goes? How about the headers? what should i go with for those? thanks a bunch!

Well with my 1JZ it breaths a lot better and is nice a quiet at idle so nobody pulls up next to me and expects the spankin they get from me. It is all in the beaterism of it. My cars paint aint the best and there are some dents but why fix em when you got a C5 vette pulled up next to you and you smoke him and he looks at you with this bewildered look of aww you know your good. Oh back to your question, If you have a turbo then you will notice a bit of gain from the test pipe but not really much get a 3" downpipe you will notice more there. Or you could get rid of the 7M all together and notice even more.
